The ground-breaking procedure, performed on Master Sushant Paudel, has opened new doors of hope for children and families facing similar challenges.<\/p>\n<p>The 7 years old son of Sepoy Pradip Paudel, Sushant was diagnosed with ARPC1b, a very rare form of immunodeficiency at one year of age, a condition that severely compromised his immune system making him prone to repeated life-threatening infections and other complications. The patient was referred to the Army Hospital (R&amp;R) six months back but did not have a HLA matched sibling donor.\u00a0 The Hematology team at the Hospital, embarked on an arduous journey to find a suitable donor and orchestrate a meticulously planned bone marrow transplant.<\/p>\n<p>The Matched Unrelated Donor (MUD) transplant, carried out on 30 Nov 23, involved harvesting healthy stem cells from an HLA compatible donor, which in this case was a voluntary unrelated donor and infusing them into Sushant Paudel&#8217;s bloodstream, after his own defective cells were destroyed by a very high dose of chemotherapy. The procedure aimed to replace the defective immune cells with healthy ones, offering a renewed chance at a healthy and vibrant life.<\/p>\n<p>After the successful transplant, the Commandant at AHRR Lt Gen Ajith Nilakantan said, \u201cIt\u2019s a moment of great pride and satisfaction for the entire medical fraternity at AHRR and this patient is a success story due to a team effort.\u201d The HOD at the Hematology department Brig Rajan Kapoor said, &#8220;Sushant Paudel&#8217;s journey has been nothing short of miraculous. This achievement is a testament to the collaborative efforts of our dedicated medical team, the unwavering support of Sushant&#8217;s family, and the generosity of the donor. To our knowledge, this is the first such transplant for this immunodeficiency in India.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Senior Advisor in the Hematology department Col Rajiv Kumar said, \u201cOnly 1 in 5 patients have a sibling with a full HLA match. The availability of HLA matched Unrelated donor stem cells, sourced in this patient from DATRI, is truly a game changer for such patients suffering from a life-threatening immunodeficiency disorder.\u201d Pediatric Hematologist at AHRR Lt Col Sanjeev Khera stated that the presence of multiple active infections at the time of the transplant made this a very challenging and high-risk transplant. The family of Sushant Paudel shared their gratitude and optimism for the future.<\/p>\n<p>The successful bone marrow transplant not only brings hope to Sushant and his family but also serves as a beacon of hope for countless others grappling with rare primary immunodeficiencies and other such disorders that are curable with a timely Bone Marrow Transplant. Army Hospital R&amp;R remains committed to advancing medical research and treatment options for rare diseases, underscoring their dedication to improving the lives of children and families.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0a2e\u0a3e\u0a2b\u0a3c \u0a15\u0a30\u0a28\u0a3e, \u0a07\u0a39 \u0a16\u0a2c\u0a30 \u0a24\u0a41\u0a39\u0a3e\u0a21\u0a40 \u0a2c\u0a47\u0a28\u0a24\u0a40 \u0a2d\u0a3e\u0a38\u0a3c\u0a3e \u0a35\u0a3f\u0a71\u0a1a \u0a09\u0a2a\u0a32\u0a2c\u0a27 \u0a28\u0a39\u0a40\u0a02 \u0a39\u0a48\u0964 \u0a15\u0a3f\u0a30\u0a2a\u0a3e \u0a15\u0a30\u0a15\u0a47 \u0a07\u0a71\u0a25\u0a47 \u0a26\u0a47\u0a16\u0a4b\u0964 Delhi: 17 DEC 2023\u00a0\u00a0 In an extraordinary medical achievement, doctors in the Department of Hematology &amp; Stem Cell Transplantation at the Army Hospital R&amp;R in Delhi Cantt. have for the first time successfully conducted a life-saving Bone Marrow Transplant (commonly [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":185821,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[109,122],"tags":[51795,14366,119,101707,101706,56731,101708,101709],"class_list":["post-185814","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-national","category-news","tag-bone-marrow-transplant","tag-delhi","tag-lt-gen-ajith-nilakantan","tag-matched-unrelated-donor","tag-news-makhani","tag-sepoy-pradip-paudel","tag-sushant"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/185814","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=185814"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/185814\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/185821"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=185814"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=185814"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=185814"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
