What is Bone Marrow?

Bone marrow is the soft, spongy tissue inside our bones that plays a vital role in keeping our blood healthy. It produces red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets—all essential for oxygen transport, immunity, and blood clotting.

Healthy bone marrow means a healthy blood system. Conditions affecting bone marrow can lead to serious blood disorders, but with timely diagnosis and expert care, effective treatment is possible.

क्या Bone Marrow Transplant 100% सफल होता है? Dr.Sweta

When patients or families are advised to undergo a Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT), the first and most common question is — “Will it be successful?”
In this video, Dr. Sweta Lunkad, Hematologist & Bone Marrow Transplant Physician at MOC Pune, explains the real factors that determine the success of a bone marrow transplant.

Bone marrow transplant success cannot be defined by a single number.
Many important factors influence the outcome, including:

The type of transplant – Autologous or Allogeneic

The age and overall health of the patient

The age and health of the donor

Whether the disease is fully controlled before transplant

The type of donor match – matched sibling donor, matched unrelated donor, or haploidentical donor.

Dr. Sweta also explains how doctors actually measure transplant success — not just survival, but whether the patient can return to a normal, healthy life after transplant.

In some cases, success rates may be above 90%, especially when the transplant is done early with a perfectly matched donor.

In other complex situations, the success rate may be around 50–60%, depending on the disease and clinical conditions.

This video will help patients and families understand how bone marrow transplant decisions are made and why it is important to have a detailed discussion with your transplant doctor.

Early diagnosis can make a big difference in the treatment of blood cancer.

Several tests help doctors detect and identify the disease accurately, including CBC, Peripheral Blood Smear, Flow Cytometry, Bone Marrow Biopsy, Lymph Node Biopsy and Cytogenetic & Molecular Testing.

Early detection improves treatment outcomes and helps start the right therapy at the right time.

Who needs bone marrow transplant? | किन लोगों को बोन मैरो ट्रांसप्लांट की जरूरत होती है?

Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) is a life-saving treatment used in many serious blood disorders and cancers.

But who actually needs a bone marrow transplant?
In this video, Dr. Sweta Lunkad, Haematologist and BMT Physician at MOC Pune, explains when a bone marrow transplant becomes necessary and which diseases may require this treatment.

A bone marrow transplant works by replacing damaged or diseased blood-forming stem cells with healthy stem cells.

This helps the body produce normal blood cells again.

There are two main types of bone marrow transplants:
Autologous Transplant

In this type, the patient’s own stem cells are used. It is commonly performed in conditions such as:
Multiple Myeloma
Lymphoma
Allogeneic Transplant

In this type, stem cells are taken from a donor. It is used in conditions such as:
Thalassemia
Aplastic Anemia
Acute Leukemia
Certain high-risk blood cancers

However, not every blood cancer patient needs a transplant. Bone marrow transplant is usually recommended in situations like:
High-risk leukemia
Relapsed leukemia (when cancer returns after treatment)
Refractory leukemia (when cancer does not respond to treatment)

If you or a family member has been diagnosed with a serious blood disorder and want to understand whether Bone Marrow Transplant is required, consult a hematologist for proper evaluation.

Early diagnosis and the right treatment can save lives.

Low hemoglobin can lead to fatigue, weakness, and poor immunity. The right nutrition can help improve your hemoglobin levels naturally.

Include iron-rich foods like spinach, beetroot, lentils, and jaggery, along with Vitamin C sources such as oranges, amla, and tomatoes to enhance iron absorption. Don’t forget protein and Vitamin B12 sources like milk, eggs, and nuts for healthy blood formation.

Tip: Avoid tea or coffee immediately after meals, as it can reduce iron absorption.
