The newborn disorders like broncho-pulmonary dysplasia, intra ventricular hemorrhage, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy can treat by stem cell therapy. For infant lymphoblastic leukemia, cerebral palsy, metabolic disorders like krabbe disorder, sanfillipoo syndrome can be treat with stem cell therapy. Childhood disorders like blood disorders, metabolic disorders, immune disorders, cancer (leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma), myelodysplastic syndrome cure by stem cell therapy. Neurological disorders like Parkinson’s disease, alzhemier`s disease, spinal cord injury, stroke, cerebral palsy, batterns disease, amyotrophic, lateral sclerosis are treated by stem cell therapy.
