1. An intravenous transplant does not require compatible human leukocyte antigens.
2. Allogeneic transplants have to be compatible in order to decrease the risk for rejection.
3. Autologus does not have the same human leukocyte antigen and increases the chance for rejection.
4. Stem cell transplants must be from the child's own stem cells in order to have compatibility.
