Over 6000 patients treated in Cuba with stem cells in the first half of 2014

Check out the exponential growth we are seeing in the amount of patients being treated with stem cells in Cuba. A news article from February of this year stated that there had been roughly 5000 patients treated with stem cell therapy in Cuba since the procedure first started being used there over a decade ago. Now just in the first half of 2014 we are seeing 6,195 patients treated in Cuba with stem cell therapy. Treatment using stem cells has now expanded to 14 provinces since first being administered in 2004. And its no wonder, in patients with arterial conditions (lower limb ischemia) in the lower limbs, treatment resulted in amputations being avoided in 58-80 percent of patients. These are not small numbers we are talking about here. These results are significant. Intellicell in the past has talked about pursuing lower limb ischemia IND using their patented adipose derived stromal vascular fraction therapy I would think this is warranted given the excellent results we are seeing out of Cuba.

More Benefitted in Cuba with Stem Cell Therapy


Havana, Cuba, Sep 8.- A total of 6 thousand 195 patients were treated in Cuba with stem cells in the first half of 2014, while the medical procedure has been expanded to 14 provinces since it was first administered here in 2004.

Doctor Porfirio Hernandez, vice-director of the Hematology and Immunology Institute, told Granma newspaper that the cellular treatment is promising particularly for patients with serious artery condition in lower limbs since it avoids amputation between 58 and 80 percent of them.

Promising results have been reported in other conditions, such as bone fractures, degenerative knee malfunctions, spinal cord problems, neurological conditions linked to strokes, among many others, the doctor said.

Cellular therapy is considered one of the major medical advancements over the past years bearing in mind its favorable prospects for people suffering from chronic diseases, who do not respond to conventional treatment.(acn).
