German Stem Cell Treatment Center Presents Results for Cerebral Palsy

Stem Cell Treatment Results for Cerebral Palsy

The Xcell-Center, a stem cell treatment center in Germany has presented results of its adult stem cell treatment for cerebral palsy.  The treatment center followed up on 45 cerebral palsy patients treated with their own stem cells.  Out of the 45, 30 patients had improvements according to Xcell.  That is a 67% success rate!

Multiple Stem Cell Success Stories From Germany

We previously featured the Xcell Center in this story about Harvey Telford, age 2, a cerebral palsy patient from England who recently returned from Germany and his parents were very happy. And also Sierra Hill, a young cerebral palsy patient from Australia- her parents were so impressed that they already have plans to return for more adult stem cells and hopefully more improvements in Sierra's quality of life. 


From the stem cell article:

These results support the premise that patients with cerebral palsy can be treated safely and effectively with autologous stem cell therapy.

The most common improvement reported by patients was improved hand and finger coordination that resulted in better hand use. A majority of patients reported less upper limb spasticity.

"Not long after the treatment, our son started speaking in full sentences. His fine motor skills have improved and he can now hold his fork and eat without help," said Mrs. Ritu Giacobbe, the mother of a 13 year-old boy who was treated at the XCell-Center one year ago.

Leg and foot coordination improved in nearly half of the patients. Approximately 4 in 10 had reduced lower limb spasticity. 20% were able to walk better.

Speech improved in about 40% of patients. 1 in 5 showed improved cognition.

From the stem cell doctor:

"These results confirm what we see in Germany on a weekly basis; that treating patients with their own stem cell yields positive results. Many of these children require less care and are now more independent. And this positively impacts the quality of life of the children and their caregivers. We couldn't be more delighted," stated Dr. Ute Tamaschke, the XCell-Center's pediatric neurosurgeon.

Description of the Treatment

The treatment begins by collecting a small amount bone marrow from the patient's hip via thin needle mini-puncture. The stem cells are separated from the bone marrow at the XCell-Center's EU certified cGMP laboratory, where they are counted and their vitality is confirmed. The last step consists of inserting a fine spinal needle between the patient's L4 and L5 vertebrae and injecting the stem cells into the cerebrospinal fluid which flows into the brain.

Interested in Therapy?

Yes, it is a shame that this simple therapy that is so simple and can be done within a 3 day period isn't available in the United States. However,if you or someone you know has cerebral palsy or another disease, please send me an email at don@repairstemcells.org and I will assist you with the Xcell Center or other stem cell therapy centres.
