Bone Marrow Transplantation
The Adult and Pediatric Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplant Pediatric Programs of the North Shore-LIJ Health System are advancing care for patients with blood and marrow disorders through compassionate treatment, education and research. A multidisciplinary team approach is used to provide comprehensive care for adults and children undergoing transplantation. Our team of dedicated specialists include medical hematologist/oncologists who specialize in bone marrow and stem cell transplantation, transplant coordinators, nurse practitioners, oncology nurses, social workers, pharmacists and nutritionists, who work together to develop an individualized treatment plan and are committed to helping patients and their families through all phases of the transplant process.
Our services include:
- Allogeneic transplants, with family member, unrelated donor or umbilical cord blood;
- Autologous transplants, using a patient's own stem cells
- Comprehensive support services for related and unrelated donors
- A dedicated team of clinicians and coordinators that follows patients through the continuum of transplant services
Bone Marrow and Stem Transplants Programs are provided at three Cancer Institute locations:
- North Shore University Hospital, Adult Bone Marrow Transplant Program
- Schneider Children’s Hospital, Pediatric Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplantation
- Staten Island University Hospital's Nalitt Institute for Cancer and Blood Related Disorders, Adult Bone Marrow Transplant Program
