World’s First to Treat Cerebral Palsy with Cord Blood

Professor Min-young Kim successfully treated cerebral palsy with cord blood stem cell transplant. Patients who had cord blood transplants generally showed improved activities of daily living, motor capacity and cognitive ability, while cell density in the area of brain responsible for motor and sensory nerves also increased. It has been approved that cord blood from someone else can be transplanted when immune system is compatible. This is a remarkable achievement in that it has approved real effects of stem cell therapy for brain damage that has been regarded as irreversible.
