Bone Marrow Transplant Treatment Abroad: What you should KNOW?

A bone marrow transplant is also known as a BMT. Bone marrow transplants have been performed since the late 1960s and are often used for:

  • Anemia Treatment,
  • Leukemia Treatment,
  • Immune Deficiency Disorders Treatment,
  • Cancer Treatment.




Bone marrow is considered a type of Stem Cell Treatment, since the bone marrow is found inside bones. It contains blood cells and stem cells whose major function is to create new blood cells and fight infection, making it very difficult for individuals requiring a bone marrow transplant find donors that can provide suitable bone marrow.

There are Different types of bone marrow transplants:
  • Allogenic - bone marrow from another donor other than the patient
  • Syngeneic - bone marrow harvested from an identical twin

In many cases, patients have a sibling whose bone marrow provides a good match that prevents rejection by the patient to foreign materials. This process is known as graft- versus-host disease, or more simply, rejection.

During the grafting process, a relatively general procedure is followed, regardless of the reason for the transplant. Prior to the transplant, both patient and donor are required to undergo a variety of tests to ensure a match and otherwise healthy organ function.

In most cases, bone marrow from a donor is harvested through a large needle inserted into the crest of the hipbone. The bone marrow is aspirated into a syringe, or more than one syringe, depending upon the amount of bone marrow required. In most cases, one to two quarts of marrow as well as blood are harvested at one time.
