The London Clinic offers this innovative treatment performed by first-rate hematologists in a comfortable, safe and stress-free environment. Stem cell therapy is an effective treatment for blood cancers and hematologic diseases. Stem cell therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that uses the body's natural healing mechanism to treat a variety of conditions. Stem cells are used in regenerative medicine to renew and repair diseased or damaged tissues, and have shown promising results in the treatment of various orthopedic, cardiovascular, neuromuscular and autoimmune.
Stem cells are present in all of us and act as a repair system for the body. However, with age, sometimes the optimal amount of stem cells does not reach the injured area. The goal of stem cell therapy is to amplify the patient's body's natural repair system. Adult stem cells are taken from the patient and can be used to help repair and regenerate damaged joint tissues and structures.
This is a possible treatment for arthritis and cartilage regeneration in the knees and hips. A stem cell transplant will usually only be done if other treatments haven't helped, if the potential benefits of the transplant outweigh the risks, and if you're in relatively good health, despite your underlying condition. The extraction or manipulation of embryonic stem cells for clinical use is illegal in the United Kingdom and the European Union. Patients with serious inherited blood disorders will be offered stem cell transplants in the NHS, which could cure their condition and help avoid blood transfusions for life.
We manage the NHS stem cell donor registry and work with other UK stem cell registries to form a single access point for UK transplant centers.
