Paediatric Hematology and BMT

Paediatric Haematology, a branch of medicine, is focused on the diagnosis, treatment, & management of disorders related to blood in children; these disorders can range from normal conditions like anaemia to some of the most complex blood problems like leukaemia and thalassemia.

We always try to provide your child with comprehensive and special care for a wide array of Haematoglocial conditions. Our team of Expert surgeons and Haematologists are able to diagnose and treat the following disorders:

  • Leukaemia: It is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. That is, it leads to the production of abnormal white blood cells that compromise the immunity system by causing numerous health complications.
  • Thalassemia: It is a genetic blood disorder characterised by the inadequate production of haemoglobin within the body. This leads to anaemia and causes symptoms of fatigue, slow growth, and other serious conditions that necessitate frequent blood transfusions.
  • Sickle Cell Disease: It is an inherited medical disorder where the red blood cells (RBCs) are shaped like a sickle, gaining its name. This leads to blockages of blood flow that cause episodes of severe pain and damage to internal organs, with potentially fatal consequences.
  • Lymphoma: Lymphoma is cancer that occurs in the lymph system, which consists of the lymph nodes and other organs. It may cause swelling of lymph nodes, fever, loss of body weight, and other systemic symptoms.
