Bone Marrow Transplant Mumbai Personalized, Trusted Care
What Is Bone Marrow Transplant?
A bone marrow transplant (also known as a stem cell transplant) is a medical procedure that replaces damaged or diseased bone marrow with healthy stem cells. These stem cells help rebuild the blood and immune systems after conditions like cancer or blood disorders.
Types of Bone Marrow Transplant We Offer:
- Autologous Transplant : Uses the patient’s own stem cells. Common in high-dose chemotherapy recovery.
- Allogeneic Transplant: Uses stem cells from a donor, often a sibling or a matched unrelated donor.
Both types are available under the guidance of Dr Kriti Hegde, tailored to the child’s medical condition, genetic compatibility, and long-term health goals.
Conditions That May Need a Transplant
Bone marrow transplants are typically recommended for children diagnosed with:
- Leukaemia (ALL, AML)
- Lymphoma (Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin)
- Aplastic anaemia
- Thalassemia major
- Sickle cell disease
- Neuroblastoma
- Certain brain tumours
- Immune deficiency disorders
Early intervention with transplant therapy can often lead to remission or even a cure in cases where standard treatments fall short.
