A hematopoietic stem cell transplant, or simply a stem cell transplant, is called as Bone marrow transplant. Bone Marrow Transplant can be used to treat certain types of cancer, such as leukemia, myeloma, and lymphoma, and other blood and immune system diseases that affect the bone marrow. During a Bone marrow transplant, healthy cells are used to replace your bone marrow. It's possible for the replacement cells to come from your body or from a donor.
A person may be required to undergo a bone marrow transplant if a person suffers from any of the health complications mentioned below
- disorders of the bone marrow, including aplastic anaemia
- Blood cancers including leukaemia or lymphoma
- Other immune deficiencies and genetic disorders like sickle cell disease
Bone Marrow treatment may be required for multiple bone marrow transplant deformation causes
- Aplastic anaemia patients’ bone marrows stop producing new blood cells regularly
- Multiple Myeloma, Leukaemia and Lymphoma are the worst type of Cancers for bone marrows
- Congenital Neutropenia, deficiency of Neutrophils slows down the healthy regeneration of bone marrow
- Chemotherapy badly affects the growth and structure of Bone Marrow
Types of Bone Marrow Transplant
- Allogenic Bone Marrow Transplant: Donated bone marrow is used to complete this treatment. A donor is deemed to be a match if his or her genes at least partially match those of the recipient. Although blood relations make the ideal bone marrow donors, national bone marrow registries can help you locate someone who matches your genetic profile.
- Autologous Bone Marrow Transplant: This process is called rescue transplant. Here, the patient’s own bone marrow is collected and refrigerated before starting of chemotherapy and radiation. Once the high dose of chemotherapy and radiation are done, the preserved stem cells are planted in the bloodstream again.
- Umbilical Cord Blood Transplant: In this process, a baby’s umbilical cord stored and refrigerated at for possible future need.
The standard process followed by experts and doctors at the best bone marrow transplant hospitals in India is as follows:
More than 250 stem cell transplants have been completed by the bone marrow transplant (BMT) units at Dr. Girish Badarkhe's clinic, the majority of which were allogeneic stem cell transplants, including transplants of HLA-matched siblings, matched unrelated individuals, cord blood, and haplo-identical individuals.
Leukocytes, also known as white blood cells (WBCs), which are crucial for the immune system, are produced by stem cells in healthy bone marrow. Your bone marrow is depleted as a result of blood malignancies and accompanying treatments like chemotherapy and radiation. Stem cell transplants assist your body in producing more cancer-free cells by rebuilding new cells from the old cells. You have the option of getting the stem cells from a donor or from your own blood.
