Cord Blood Transplant Treatment in India

Cord blood transplant uses stem cells collected from umbilical cord blood, stored in public or private cord blood banks, as an alternative source of donor stem cells when a fully matched donor is not available. Cord blood stem cells are less likely to cause severe immune reactions, making this option valuable for patients without a matched sibling or unrelated donor.

• Fatigue and weakness from underlying blood disorder
• Frequent infections
• Abnormal bleeding or bruising
• Pale skin or shortness of breath
• Bone marrow failure symptoms

Cord blood transplant is considered when a patient needs a stem cell transplant but does not have a fully matched sibling or unrelated adult donor, particularly for certain leukemias, immune disorders, and inherited blood conditions, especially in children.

• A matched or partially matched cord blood unit is selected from a cord blood bank
• Conditioning chemotherapy or radiation prepares the patient's body
• The cord blood stem cells are infused into the bloodstream
• Engraftment is monitored closely as new blood cells begin to form
• Supportive care continues throughout the engraftment period

• 3-5 weeks hospital stay during the transplant process
• Engraftment may take slightly longer than with adult donor cells
• Immune precautions and monitoring during recovery
• Regular follow-up to assess blood counts and graft function
• Gradual return to normal activities over several months

• Access to cord blood banking networks for donor matching
• Experienced pediatric and adult transplant specialists
• Lower risk of severe graft-versus-host disease with cord blood
• Transparent, all-inclusive package pricing
• Dedicated coordination for international patients and families
