Paediatric Stem Cell (Bone Marrow) Transplant
Overview
A stem cell transplant is a medical procedure that replaces a child's diseased or damaged bone marrow with healthy stem cells. Bone marrow is the soft tissue inside bones that produces blood cells. Stem cells are special cells that can develop into all types of blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
The AKUH Paediatric Stem Cell Transplant Programme offers children with a variety of blood and immune disorders a chance at a cure.
