Center of Oncohematology and Bone Marrow Transplantation

New Hospitals Center of Oncohaematology and Bone Marrow Transplantation is staffed with the best hematologists and has the support of the best clinics in Europe, which provides for the implementation of European standards and the involvement of invited specialists in the treatment of patients.

Stem cell transplant is an effective method of treating hematologic and oncohaematological diseases involving the removal of damaged cells and their replacement with new, healthy cell mass. During the bone marrow transplantation, autologous (self), allogeneic (unrelated, sibling) and umbilical cord stem cells can be used. New Hospitals currently provides autologous stem cell transplantation procedure which is done when a patient's bone marrow is not damaged and / or the disease is in remission.
