Chennai: Apollo Hospitals on Wednesday said it reached a new milestone with over 1,500 successful Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) procedures conducted on patients nationally. The 1,500 patients have been treated at Apollo BMT units from all over India, including Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi, Kozhikode, Gujarat, Bengal, as well as from foreign countries like Oman, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Dubai, UAE, and Mauritius.
It was the first hospital to conduct India's first cord blood transplant and unrelated transplant, and the 1500 BMT landmark endorses the success of these high-end procedures for both children and adults with survival rates comparable to western centres. Bone marrow transplantation saves the lives of patients with blood cancer and serious blood disorders like thalassemia major, aplastic anaemia and primary immune deficiency.,
