About the department

The Department of Hematology and Hematologic Oncology at the Rambam Health Care Campus Haifa offers the full service range for the diagnostics and treatment of all benign and malignant hematopoietic pathologies. The department has in its arsenal multidisciplinary laboratories and the Blood Bank, which create all the conditions for the successful implementation of comprehensive treatment of blood diseases of varying severity. The department is also the leading Israeli Leukemia Center. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Tsila Zuckerman.

One of the most important focuses of the department is bone marrow transplantation (about 150 transplants annually). The transplantation is carried out within the specialized center, which has 15 beds in ultramodern patient rooms with equipment for intensive care. The specialists of the center have exceptional experience in autologous transplantation (transplantation of the patient's own bone marrow), isogenic transplantation (when the donor is the identical cosmobion of the recipient), allogeneic transplantation (when the donor is another person, for example, a relative or a family member) and haploidentical transplantation (cord blood transfusion and transplantation from a partially compatible donor). All types of transplantation are performed in accordance with the modern international protocols and meet the highest medical standards. In addition, the center provides preparations for transplantation, postoperative care and treatment of posttransplantation complications.

The department also includes the inpatient Section of Hematology, which provides chemotherapy and treatment of both malignant and benign hematological diseases, as well as the outpatient Section of Hematology, which provides consultations, chemotherapy, blood transfusions and other therapeutic procedures.

The Hematology Laboratory of the department was certified according to ISO 9001:2000 standard for its excellent quality of work. In addition, the department has an in-house Stem Cell Laboratory, which is equipped with everything necessary for the processing and cryopreservation of bone marrow and stem cell grafts, therapeutic procedures, immunophenotypic analysis and stem cell cultivation.

It is worth noting that the department's specialists are actively involved in immunological research and the development of antitumor vaccines, research of genetic specificities and treatment of leukemia, the study of the relationship between thrombosis and cancer, vascular complications during pregnancy, as well as the role of cellular organelles in human health and the development of diseases.
