Chronic liver disease is a significant health burden in Ghana, driven largely by high rates of Hepatitis B infection, alongside rising alcohol-related and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Liver transplantation is not routinely available within Ghana, meaning patients with advanced disease are often referred abroad, at considerable cost and with limited capacity. Stem Cell Cure India works with Ghanaian patients exploring stem cell therapy as a complementary option alongside standard hepatology care and treatment for the underlying cause of liver damage.
Specialist hepatology care, advanced liver imaging, and Hepatitis B/C management programmes are concentrated in a small number of hospitals in Accra and Kumasi, with local liver transplant capacity essentially unavailable. This has led a growing number of Ghanaian patients to travel to India for a combination of specialist evaluation, affordable diagnostics, and regenerative treatment options not widely accessible in West Africa.
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 improve markers of liver function in certain chronic liver conditions. Cells are typically administered via intravenous infusion under medical supervision. This approach is explored as a complement to — not a replacement for — standard hepatology treatment, including antiviral therapy for Hepatitis B or C where indicated, and does not replace liver transplant in end-stage liver failure.
Suitability depends on your specific condition and its severity. As a starting point, our team typically reviews:
No. Chronic liver disease, including cirrhosis, is not curable with stem cell therapy. It is explored as an option that may help support liver function and reduce inflammation, alongside — not instead of — standard hepatology care and treatment of the underlying cause.
Patients with viral hepatitis are evaluated individually, and antiviral treatment for the underlying infection remains essential. Please share your hepatitis status and current antiviral treatment so our team can advise honestly on suitability.
No. Stem cell therapy does not replace liver transplant in end-stage liver failure. It is explored as a supportive option in earlier or moderate-stage chronic liver disease.
Recent liver function tests, viral hepatitis status, and liver imaging if available. This allows our team to give an initial opinion before you commit to travel.
Yes. Once treatment is confirmed, we provide the invitation and supporting documents Ghanaian citizens need to apply for a Medical Visa through the High Commission of India in Accra.
Most patients stay between 7 and 10 days, depending on diagnostic requirements and the treatment plan.
