The three main types of blood cancer are
Leukemia
This blood cancer leads to the
production of abnormal white blood
cells.
Types of Leukemia:
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)
Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)
Lymphoma
This cancer affects the lymphatic
system, which is part of the immune
system
Types of Lymphoma:
Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL)
Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL)
Myeloma
Myeloma is cancer of the plasma cells,
which are a type of white blood cell responsible for producing antibodies.
Type of Myeloma :
Multiple Myeloma
Blood cancers can disrupt the body’s ability to produce healthy blood cells, impairing its ability to fight infections, carry oxygen, and manage waste products.
Treatment for Blood cancer is crucial, and a bone marrow transplant is often one of the most effective therapies.
Adult & Paediatric (Child) Bone Marrow Transplants
A bone marrow transplant is a life-saving procedure used to treat conditions like leukemia, lymphoma, thalassemia, and severe aplastic anemia in both adults and children.
This treatment is usually considered when other therapies, such as chemotherapy or radiation, have not been effective. It plays a crucial role in treating specific types of blood cancer, offering hope for patients with these serious conditions.
Bone marrow transplants can be curative for many patients by
- Rebuilding the bone marrow and immune system
- Reducing the risk of cancer recurrence
- Allowing the body to produce healthy blood cells once again
Types of Bone Marrow Transplant
There are several types of bone marrow transplants, each depending on the source of the transplant cells.
Autologous Bone Marrow Transplant
Uses the patient’s own cells, collected before treatment and infused after chemotherapy/radiation.
Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplant
Uses cells from a healthy donor (relative or unrelated), typically for leukemia or blood cancers.
Haploidentical Bone Marrow Transplant
A subtype of allogeneic transplant with a half-matched donor, often a parent or child.
Matched Unrelated Transplant (MUD)
This transplant involves receiving cells from a donor who is not biologically related to the patient but matches.
