Stem cell therapy in Neurodevelopmental disorders such as Autism has exposed path-breaking results and development in the brain plasticity. It is one of the neurobehavioural disorder with impairments in areas such as social interaction, speech development and social skills combined with excess irritabilities and repetitive behaviour. Children with autism also disagree with changes in regular routine and have difficulty in keeping up with other children in school.
An incredible improvement was seen in a boy with autism, named Shantanu. The developmental disorder (autism) had impaired his social ability and concentration that affected his life substantially. After visiting the NeuroGen Brain and Spine Institute, his parents met Dr Alok Sharma who explained to them the nature of the disorder. He explained about stem cells, their advantages and the painless procedure of the therapy.
After a number of tests, Shantanu was treated with stem cells. The boy’s own autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells were infused intrathecally into his body. After cellular therapy, he was subjected to personalized multidisciplinary neuro-rehabilitation programmes.
Shantanu showed a significant change! He started communicating more, had improved cognitive skills, was less hyperactive, more social and was interested in learning and playing with his sister and friends. The outcome was really amazing!
NeuroGen Brain and Spine Institute seamlessly combines both rehabilitation techniques and stem cell therapy along with synergistic teamwork. A tried and tested form of treatment given under one roof to provide hope of an improved life!
(There is no clarity about what causes autism and also there is no ‘complete cure’ for it.)
