BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT
Our bone marrow transplant centers have all the infrastructure and equipment necessary for transplantation. All services in the center meet international standards and are provided in sterile conditions. The department for hospitalized patients ensures the transplant, and the outpatient clinic offers post-transplant care services.
What are the methods for transferring stem cells?
ALLOGENEIC TRANSPLANTATION
This is the transplantation of stem cells collected from siblings, relatives, or other unrelated individuals.
AUTOLOGOUS TRANSPLANTATION
This is the transplantation of stem cells taken from the patient for the treatment of certain blood conditions.
SYNGENEIC TRANSPLANTATION
This is the transplantation of stem cells taken from one of the monozygotic twins to the other.
α-βT DEFECTIVE CELL TRANSPLANTATION
A very special type of transplant performed in only a few centers worldwide is the bone marrow transplant – stem cells, which reduces the number of dangerous cells (α-β T cells). This transplant is a candidate for solving the problem of finding a perfect donor and is seen as the transplant method of the future.
WHAT IS A STEM CELL?
The primary cells that generate all the tissues and organs in the body are stem cells. These cells, still undifferentiated, have the capacity to divide, renew themselves, and transform into organs and tissues.
Blood is the liquid tissue of the body and is produced in the bone marrow. Hematopoietic, or “blood-forming stem cells,” are located here. These are produced by the primary cells in the bone marrow and are released into the blood when they reach the necessary maturity.
Their number remains constant, but when needed, they can reproduce themselves or generate new and mature blood cells.
How is stem cell transfer performed?
A space must be created for the new cells to enter the body of the person undergoing the transplant. Therefore, before the procedure, the patient’s bone marrow is destroyed by medication and radiation.
On the day this preparatory phase ends (usually lasting 7–8 days), the bone marrow transplant is performed by transferring the new stem cells to the patient.
The transplanted stem cells “know” where to go, as they are programmed for these destinations. They find empty spaces in the bone marrow available for reproduction, settle there, and reproduce like a seed.
