Haemato-oncology is a medical specialty that deals with blood related disorders. It includes conditions such as leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, anemia, thalassemia, sickle cell disease, aplastic anemia, and other blood-related disorders.
A bone marrow transplant, also known as a stem cell transplant, is a treatment in which healthy blood-forming stem cells are given to a patient to replace damaged or diseased bone marrow.
Bone marrow transplant may be considered for selected cases of leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndrome, thalassemia, aplastic anemia and some other blood disorders. The decision depends on diagnosis, disease stage, patient health and specialist evaluation.
Yes, bone marrow or stem cell transplant may be used in selected blood cancer cases such as leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma, depending on the type of cancer and treatment plan.
Patients with suspected or diagnosed blood cancers, repeated abnormal blood reports, unexplained anemia, swollen lymph nodes, frequent infections, bleeding issues or bone marrow-related disorders may be advised to consult a haemato-oncologist.
In an autologous transplant, the patient’s own stem cells are used. In an allogeneic transplant, stem cells are taken from a suitable donor. The choice depends on the disease type, patient condition and doctor’s recommendation.
The transplant procedure itself is usually done through an intravenous infusion, similar to a blood transfusion. However, patients may experience side effects during chemotherapy, conditioning treatment or recovery, which are managed under medical supervision.
Common symptoms of blood cancer may include unexplained weight loss, frequent fever, tiredness, repeated infections, unusual bleeding or bruising, swollen lymph nodes, bone pain and abnormal blood test reports. A specialist evaluation is important for proper diagnosis.
Blood cancer is usually diagnosed through blood tests, bone marrow examination, imaging tests, biopsy, flow cytometry, cytogenetic tests and molecular tests. The exact tests depend on the patient’s symptoms and suspected type of blood disorder.
In many cases, chemotherapy or conditioning treatment is given before bone marrow transplant. It helps prepare the body for receiving healthy stem cells and may also help destroy diseased cells before the transplant procedure.
