About the department
The Department of Hematology at the Asan Medical Center offers aims at offering optimized treatment to patients suffering from a variety of hematologic diseases. We computerized treatment protocols of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) as well as leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, myelodyplastic syndrome, and aplastic anemia to allow each patient to receive optimal treatment, and introduced the latest therapies including haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to deliver super-specialized medical services.
The Hematologic Cancer and BMT Center provides the following treatments. For multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and some acute leukemia patients,an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is performed. injected into the patients after a high-dose chemotherapy treatment. Allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantationis aimed to cure various diseases such as acute and chronic leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, and myeloproliferative neoplasm. Bone marrow transplantation from HLA-haploidentical family donors (parents, children or siblings) is available for patients who cannot receive bone marrow transplantation because there are no matched HLA-identical siblings or stranger donors.
The department of hematology is trying to offer the best treatment to patients with hematologic malignancies through accurate diagnosis, chemotherapy, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
