Autism is a spectrum of neuro-degenerating conditions affecting each child with autism with different symptoms. This group of developmental disabilities interferes with the development of essential skills comprising of intellectual disabilities, behavioural issues, and difficulties in communicating and socializing. In autism, the network of brain cells (neurons or nerve cells) does not function properly, thereby impairing the complete neuron system.
Adult stem cells, found in the tissue of the bone marrow, can divide and generate into large quantities of cells. These cells are therefore harnessed for autism treatment for generating innumerable cells for treating/replacing the damaged brain cells.
Treatment
Neurogen Brain and Spine Institute in Mumbai uses mesenchymal stem cells extracted from the hip bone of the patient for brain-tissue treating purposes. The treatment is done by a team of renowned doctors, therapists, and neurosurgeons who dedicatedly serve to provide their patients with an independent and enhanced lifestyle.
Cell therapy for autism in India is done at Neurogen BSI where they treat not only Indians but also patients from various countries. Before treatment, the neurosurgeons consult with the parents or caregivers of the patients to know in-depth about their past medical history and symptoms. They perform several tests to understand the stage of disease and the severity of the condition. As per the test results, the doctors discuss autism treatment with family members, enlightening them about the cell treatment procedure and its benefits.
Cell therapy for autism in India is a simple and painless procedure. Initially, the neurosurgeon extract stem cells from the patient’s hip bone with an aspiration needle. This extracted marrow is sent to the well-equipped GMP laboratory for processing. The stem cells are separated from the marrow tissue and tested for faults. The last step of the therapy for autism treatment is the patient receiving the stem cells via intrathecal injection in the spinal area. As these cells belong to the patient, they have no chance of being rejected or causing dire reactions. The transplant is always successful.
Post-treatment the doctors suggest rehabilitation programs (according to the need of each patient), that involve occupational therapy, speech therapy, physiotherapy, and ABA therapy.
The neurosurgeons at Neurogen BSI believe that every patient deserves an effective and safe treatment. They pledge to provide the next-generation treatments along with state of the art facility with matchless services to assure valuable treatment results.
