Overview

The Department of Haematology, Haemato-Oncology and Bone Marrow Transplant at Baby Memorial Hospital is a comprehensive centre for the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of blood disorders and blood-related cancers. It offers advanced clinical expertise supported by modern treatment infrastructure to manage a wide range of benign and malignant haematological conditions.

The department specialises in the management of complex blood cancers such as leukaemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma, as well as non-cancerous blood disorders including various types of anaemia, thalassemia, bleeding and clotting disorders, platelet abnormalities, and myeloproliferative neoplasms. Each patient receives an individualised treatment plan designed by a multidisciplinary team of clinical haematologists, oncologists, transplant specialists, and trained support staff.

Services include systemic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy for all types of haematological malignancies, supported by a dedicated day-care chemotherapy unit with biosafety protocols and experienced nursing care. For patients requiring inpatient management, the department provides well-equipped facilities to safely deliver complex treatments.

A key highlight of the department is its Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplantation services, where patients with conditions like aplastic anaemia, high-risk leukaemia, and genetic blood disorders receive curative treatment options. Counselling services are provided to guide patients and their families through the transplant process, ensuring both physical and emotional preparedness.
