Angeles Health International, a leading provider for bone marrow transplants, has seen a 70% increase from 2012 to 2013 in patient enquiries relating to bone marrow transplant treatment. The inquiries relate to a range of illnesses, including blood cancer, such as multiple lyeloma, leukemia or lymphoma, as well as inherited diseases such as congenital neutropenia, sickle cell anemia or aplastic anemia.Bone Marrow Transplantation involves either replacing unhealthy bone marrow or replacing bone marrow that has been destroyed by the effects of chemotherapy or radiation treatment. There are three predominant types of bone marrow transplant; autologous bone marrow transplant, allogeneic bone marrow transplant and umbilical cord blood transplant.
Autologous bone marrow transplant involves removing stem cells from a patient prior to them receiving a high dose of chemotherapy or radiation treatment. After treatment the cells are re-inserted into the patient’s body. Allogeneic bone marrow transplant involves the same process but by use of a donor to provide the stem cells. Umbilical cord blood transplant involves removing stem cells from a new-born baby’s umbilical cord, and storing them for later use.
Dr. Robert Ovilla at Angeles Health International is a specialist in the field of bone marrow treatment. With the combination of his medical experience and the state of the art facilities at Angeles Health International, he has treated many patients to great success. One of these patients includes Jan, a patient who received Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplant to treat relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Jan was initially treated successfully; however she relapsed while in remission. While she was offered a conventional treatment, the only realistic long term option is widely considered to be a bone marrow transplant. Jan was treated by Dr. Ovilla to great success; she has avoided relapse and been able to return to full health.
The rise in interest for the treatment is no doubt due to an increasing amount of backing research and success stories that surround the treatment. For cancer, research has found that bone marrow transplantation is one of the best ways to treat recurring cancer and prevent future recurrences.
