10. Stem Cell Transplant

A stem cell transplant is the only Myelodysplastic Syndrome treatment that will actually cure it. The procedure is considered a high-intensity treatment and involves a series of radiation or chemotherapy sessions. After destroying the abnormal bone marrow cells, you need a donor for stem cells. For the transplant, you can use stem cells from blood or bone marrow. The transplanted cells will begin to grow new, healthy blood cells.
