Understanding Bone Marrow Transplants

A bone marrow transplant is a medical procedure that replaces damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. This treatment is crucial for individuals with certain types of cancers, blood disorders, or other serious health conditions. The procedure can be life-saving and is often recommended for patients who have not responded to other treatments.
