Stem cell transplantation involves the process of replacing damaged or diseased cells with healthy stem cells. These stem cells can be sourced from various places such as bone marrow, peripheral blood, or umbilical cord blood. This type of treatment is often used to treat conditions such as leukemia, lymphoma, and certain genetic disorders. Stem cell transplantation can help to restore the body's ability to produce healthy blood cells and can potentially cure the underlying disease. The success of the procedure depends on factors such as the type of stem cells used, the matching of donor and recipient, and the overall health of the patient.
