by IndiCure Health Tours Medical Tourism Company in India

Bone marrow transplant is a surgical procedure done to replace the damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells.  Bone marrow is a soft fatty tissue inside the bones and stem cells are immature cells in bone marrow that give rise to all types of blood cells.

Bone Marrow Transplant is done when other treatments are not working or there is higher risk of condition returning without the transplant. The ideal candidates for bone marrow transplant are those who are in otherwise good health and have stem cells available from a sibling, or another family member, with the same tissue type.

Conditions in which bone marrow transplant is recommended:

Bone Marrow transplant is recommended in conditions such as:

-          Cancers such as leukemia, lymphoma or multiple myeloma

-          Disease affecting production of bone marrow cells, such as:

·         Aplastic anaemia

·         Sickle cell anaemia

·         Thallesemia

·         Congenital neutropenia

·         Severe immunodeficiency syndromes

Types of Bone Marrow transplants:

-          Autologous transplant – Also known as “rescue” transplant, autologous transplant procedure entails removing stem cells and storing them in a freezer (cryopreservation) before exposing the patient to chemotherapy or radiation treatment. After high dose chemotherapy, stem cells are put back in the body to add to normal blood cells.

-          Allogenic bone transplant – “Allo” means other. In this procedure, stem cells are removed from the donor. The donor must at least partly match with the patient genetically. For allogenic bone transplant, special blood tests are done to find a good match for the patient. Sometimes parents, children and other relatives are found as good matches.

-          Umbilical cord transplant – In Umbilical cord transplant procedure, stem cells are removed from a newborn baby’s umbilical cord after birth. Stem cells are stored until they are needed for the transplant.
