    Bone Marrow Transplant

    Bone marrow transplant (BMT) is a specialised type of surgery for individuals with blood cancers or other types of cancers or autoimmune disorders. The surgery aims to replace unhealthy blood cells with healthy ones, thereby normalising blood functions.

    At Apollo Hospitals, Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, we are recognised as one of the leading multispecialty hospitals in carrying out successful BMTs. With over 1,500 successful transplants, we pride ourselves on providing world-class care for patients with blood cancers and other haematological disorders. Our skilled transplant specialists, haematologists, oncologists, and experts from other multidisciplinary specialities ensure personalised treatment based on their specific conditions.

    We also offer outpatient BMT services for patients, providing them with the benefits of BMT while reducing hospital stays and costs by 50%. These services offer several advantages, including enhanced patient comfort, cost efficiency, improved quality of life, reduced hospital-related stress, and increased convenience for daily outpatient requirements and care.

    How is BMT Done?  

    Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) is a medical procedure that involves replacing diseased or cancerous blood-forming cells with healthy ones to treat blood cancers. Blood-forming cells are produced in the bone marrow, peripheral stem cells, and umbilical cord blood. During BMT, stem cells, typically found in the bone marrow, are collected, processed, and then reintroduced either into the donor (patient) or another recipient.

    There are two types of BMTs carried out at Apollo Cancer Centre, Hyderabad:

    • Autologous Transplant: This form of BMT involves using the patient’s own healthy blood stem cells to replace damaged bone marrow. After harvesting stem cells from the patient’s body, they are reintroduced following conditioning treatment.
    • Allogeneic Transplant: In this type, unhealthy bone marrow is replaced with healthy blood stem cells from a donor, who may be a family member, friend, or even an unrelated individual.

    FAQ's

    Complications associated with BMT are rare, as experts decide on whether a patient requires BMT after a thorough review of their medical history. Common risks may include anaemia, infections, bleeding from vital organs, infertility, cataracts, early onset of menopause, and so on.

    BMTs can help in renewing your body’s capacity to produce new blood cells after intensive cancer treatments, such as high-dose radiation therapy and chemotherapy. This will help to support the immune system, reduce infection, and improve overall blood cell function, aiding in the patient’s recovery and quality of life.
