Autologous stem-cell transplantation is distinguished from
allogenic stem cell transplantation where the donor and the recipient of the stem cells are different people.[2]
It can be also used as an
Assisted reproductive technology to improve the reproductive outcomes. In a first step the bone marrow derived stem cells are mobilized. After that they will be isolated from the peripheral blood by
apheresis. The treated stem cells will then be infused into the
ovarian artery threw catheterism.
