Haematology, the science of blood and its disorders, including bone marrow, is fundamental to our diagnostic and treatment programs. We address:
These procedures involve harvesting stem cells from bone marrow or peripheral blood under strict sterile conditions.
As a leading bone marrow transplant hospital in India, our BMT department offers:
Our Bone Marrow Transplant department in Ahmedabad is supported by:
In 2024, India reports BMT success rates of 80-85%. Published studies indicate ~65% survival for autologous transplants and ~57% for allogeneic transplants over 39 months. Zydus meets these benchmarks, reinforcing its position as a top provider of bone marrow transplant surgery in Ahmedabad.
Blood cancer is a group of cancers that affect the production and function of blood cells. It usually begins in the bone marrow, where abnormal and dysfunctional blood cells grow and multiply uncontrollably. These cells interfere with the body’s ability to fight infections, carry oxygen, and repair tissues effectively.
The main types of blood cancer include leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma. Leukemia affects white blood cells and can develop rapidly or progress slowly. Lymphoma originates in the lymphatic system, which is an important part of the body’s immune defense. Myeloma develops in plasma cells, a type of white blood cell responsible for producing antibodies. Together, these cancers disrupt normal blood cell production and weaken the body’s natural defense mechanisms.
Common symptoms of blood cancer include persistent fatigue, unexplained fever, drenching night sweats, and a tendency to bruise or bleed easily. Some individuals may also notice swollen lymph nodes in the neck, armpits, or groin.
Other warning signs can include bone or joint pain, frequent infections, and unexplained weight loss. These symptoms often develop gradually and may seem mild at first, but if they persist or worsen, it is important to seek medical evaluation for timely diagnosis and care.
Symptoms by Type
Leukemia: Common symptoms include persistent fatigue, frequent infections, easy bruising or bleeding, and unexplained weight loss.
Lymphoma: Often presents with painless swelling of lymph nodes, usually in the neck, armpits, or groin, along with fever and drenching night sweats.
Myeloma: Typically causes bone pain—most commonly in the back or ribs—along with fatigue and a higher risk of infections.
One needs to understand that all blood cancers are not the same, there are some which can be treated very successfully while there are others in which the treatment may not be that effective. Due to advances in the field of medical science and the availability of new and effective cancer treatment in form of immunotherapy, targeted agents and biologic agents we are able to treat blood cancer patients with better success rate.
At Zydus Cancer Hospital, the team is equipped to handle various types of Blood Cancers and have a record of treating thousands of patients with successful outcomes, patient aging right from infant to late age. The team has also performed more than 1300 bone marrow transplants including autologous and allogenic. The combination of advanced technology and haematologists with BMT expertise makes Zydus the hub for safe and advanced patient onco-care.
