Hospital time varies by patient and by transplant type, Typically with an allogeneic transplant, the procedure is done on an in-patient basis and you can expect a hospital stay of 21 to 45 days depending on conditioning regimen, engraftment, and potential for complications. It seems that most people are out by about day 30 or so if everything goes according to plan.
Autologous transplants are done a little differently and frequently are started on an outpatient basis and have a shorter hospital stay of about 14 days from what I have seen.
