Chronic liver disease — including cirrhosis linked to viral hepatitis (particularly Hepatitis B) and increasingly non-alcoholic fatty liver disease — is a growing health concern in Ethiopia, where Hepatitis B prevalence is relatively high and liver transplant services remain effectively unavailable within the country. Stem Cell Cure India works with Ethiopian patients exploring stem cell therapy as a complementary option alongside standard hepatology care.
With no established liver transplant programme in Ethiopia and specialist hepatology services concentrated in a small number of Addis Ababa hospitals, patients with advancing liver disease often have very limited local options once medication-based management is no longer enough. Many Ethiopian patients travel to India for specialist hepatology evaluation and to explore regenerative treatment that may help support liver function.
Dr. Tyagi leads the regenerative medicine protocol design at Stem Cell Cure India, overseeing stem cell sourcing, lab processing, and treatment planning for patients — including those travelling from Nigeria.
Dr. Singh brings over three decades of clinical experience in general medicine and surgery, supporting the overall health evaluation of patients — including baseline assessments for liver disease patients — before and during their stem cell therapy journey at Stem Cell Cure India.
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are studied for their potential to support liver tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and help improve markers of liver function in patients with chronic liver disease. Cells are typically administered via infusion under hepatology and regenerative medicine supervision. This approach does not replace liver transplantation in end-stage liver failure, but is explored as an option that may help support liver function in earlier or moderate-stage disease.
Suitability depends on the underlying cause and stage of liver disease. Before travelling, our team reviews:
No. Stem cell therapy is not a substitute for liver transplantation in end-stage liver failure. It is explored as an option that may help support liver function and slow progression in earlier or moderate-stage chronic liver disease, alongside standard hepatology care.
Patients with hepatitis-related liver disease are assessed individually. Please share your hepatitis status, viral load if known, and current liver function tests so our team can advise honestly on suitability.
Recent liver function tests, relevant hepatitis markers, and liver imaging such as ultrasound or FibroScan results if available. This allows our team to give an initial opinion before you commit to travel.
Most patients stay between 7 and 14 days, depending on diagnostic requirements and the treatment plan.
Yes. Once treatment is confirmed, we provide the invitation and supporting documents Ethiopian citizens need to apply for a Medical Visa through the Indian Embassy in Addis Ababa.
Cost depends on disease stage and the treatment plan required. Contact us for a personalised quote after sharing your liver function reports and medical history.
