Why Bone Marrow Transplant Needed ...?

Bone marrow transplants are performed when an individual's marrow isn't sufficiently sound to work appropriately. This could be because of incessant contaminations, malady, or disease medications. A few purposes behind a bone marrow transplant include:

  • thalassemia, which is an inherited blood disorder where the body makes an abnormal form of hemoglobin, an integral part of red blood cells
  • damaged bone marrow due to chemotherapy
  • sickle cell anemia, which is an inherited blood disorder that causes misshapen red blood cells
  • cancers that affect the marrow, such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma
