The mortality rate for autologous stem cell transplants can differ based on a number of variables that include the patient’s general health, condition treated and specific procedure details. This is why it’s crucial to discuss such issues with a hematologist-oncologist or transplant specialist who can provide personalized details based on the actual medical case. They may present possible data and evaluate the risks-benefits according to separate health condition of this patient or form of treatment for certain illness. It is important to have a broad understanding from an expert in this area.

Can fetal stem cells be harvested without destroying the embroy?
Male | 69
Yes so the process of extracting fetal stem cells from the embryo can destruct the embryo. This is because the cells are usually obtained from the inner cell mass of the embryo, which is a stage of development where the embryo is destroyed in the process. Alternative sources of stem cells, such as adult stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), have been developed to overcome some of the ethical concerns associated with using fetal stem cells.

6 months post stem cell transplant what to expect?
Male | 34
Gradual recovery and improved immune function can be observed about six months post-stem cell transplant. Most transplant-related side effects should wear off, and your energy might improve too. Regular sessions with your medical care team will keep track of progress and you can possibly resume activities to normal levels. Individual recovery can often differ and the guidance from your Doctor for further care and modifications to your lifestyle should not be neglected.
