Cytotherapy

Cytotherapy is a medical treatment that uses cells, often from a patient’s own body or a donor, to repair or replace damaged tissues or treat certain diseases. It involves harvesting, processing, and then reintroducing these cells into the patient to stimulate healing or restore function. Common examples include stem cell therapy for blood disorders or regenerative treatments using specific cell types. Cytotherapy aims to harness the body’s natural regenerative capabilities, offering potential alternatives or complements to traditional treatments like surgery or medication. It is a rapidly evolving field with ongoing research to improve safety and effectiveness.
