About Bone Marrow Transplant

A bone marrow transplant, performed by an oncologist, is a life-saving medical procedure that replaces damaged or diseased bone marrow with healthy stem cells. This complex treatment is primarily used for patients with blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma, as well as certain genetic disorders and bone marrow failure syndromes. The procedure involves collecting healthy stem cells, either from the patient (autologous) or a donor (allogeneic), and infusing them into the bloodstream after high-dose chemotherapy or radiation. These new cells then travel to the bone marrow and begin producing healthy blood cells, effectively rebuilding the body's immune and blood-forming systems. It is a cornerstone of modern hematologic oncology, offering a potential cure for many serious conditions.

Key Highlights

Offers a potential cure for various blood cancers and genetic disorders.Replaces diseased bone marrow with healthy, functioning stem cells.Can be autologous (using patient's own cells) or allogeneic (using donor cells).Rebuilds the body's entire blood and immune system.Performed by specialized oncologists in dedicated transplant centers.

Who is this surgery for?

Acute and chronic leukemias (e.g., AML, ALL, CML).
Lymphomas (Hodgkin's and Non-Hodgkin's).
Multiple myeloma and other plasma cell disorders.
Severe aplastic anemia and other bone marrow failure syndromes.
Certain inherited immune or metabolic disorders (e.g., sickle cell disease, thalassemia).
Some solid tumors requiring high-dose chemotherapy.

How to prepare

Comprehensive medical evaluation including heart, lung, and kidney tests.
Extensive blood tests and tissue typing to find a suitable donor (for allogeneic transplant).
Dental check-up to prevent infections.
Central venous catheter placement (e.g., Hickman line) for treatment and stem cell infusion.
Fertility preservation counseling and procedures, if desired.
Conditioning regimen with high-dose chemotherapy and/or radiation to destroy diseased marrow.

Risks & possible complications

Infections due to severely weakened immune system (neutropenia).
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) where donor cells attack the patient's body.
Graft failure, where the new stem cells do not engraft.
Organ damage (e.g., to liver, lungs, heart) from conditioning therapy.
Bleeding and anemia due to low platelet and red blood cell counts.
Long-term risks include infertility, secondary cancers, and chronic health issues.

Recovery & hospital stay

Initial hospital stay in a sterile environment to prevent infection while blood counts recover.
Frequent blood transfusions and medications to prevent infection and GVHD.
Close monitoring for fever, infections, and signs of GVHD.
Gradual return to normal activities over several months, avoiding crowds and sick contacts.
Lifelong follow-up with the oncology team to monitor for late effects and disease recurrence.
Nutritional support and physical therapy to rebuild strength.

Typical hospital stay: 4-6 weeks
Expected recovery time: 6-12 months for full immune recovery

PATIENT REVIEW

I'd been to a few doctors...

I'd been to a few doctors for this persistent stomach pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Jayaraman was different. He actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests others hadn't. Turns out it was a tricky gallbladder issue, not just 'stress.' He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad. I felt heard for the first time.
