Chronic respiratory illness — including COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, and lung damage following tuberculosis — remains a significant health burden in Ethiopia, where TB incidence is among the higher rates in East Africa and household air pollution from biomass cooking fuel affects a large share of the population. For patients who have not responded adequately to standard inhaler and medication-based care, Stem Cell Cure India offers stem cell therapy as an additional option to discuss alongside conventional pulmonology treatment.
Advanced pulmonology diagnostics such as HRCT imaging, along with regenerative treatment options, are concentrated in a small number of hospitals in Addis Ababa, often at a cost that is out of reach for many families, with little equivalent service available in regional towns. Many Ethiopian patients look to India for specialist evaluation, affordable diagnostic imaging, and regenerative treatment options that are largely unavailable in the region.
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 lung 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 reduce lung inflammation, support tissue repair, and improve markers of lung function in certain chronic respiratory conditions. Cells are usually given by intravenous infusion under medical supervision. This is explored as a complement to — not a replacement for — standard pulmonology treatment such as bronchodilators, oxygen therapy, or antifibrotic medication where prescribed.
Suitability depends on the specific lung condition and its severity. Before travelling, our team reviews:
No. These are long-term, often progressive conditions, and stem cell therapy is not a cure. It is explored as an option that may help support lung function and reduce inflammation, alongside standard pulmonology care.
Patients with previous TB-related lung damage are assessed individually. Please share your TB treatment history along with recent chest imaging so our team can advise on suitability.
Recent pulmonary function tests, a chest X-ray or HRCT scan, and details of any oxygen therapy. This lets our team offer an initial opinion before you commit to travel.
Most patients stay between 7 and 10 days, depending on the diagnostic work-up and 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 the specific condition, its severity, and the treatment plan needed. Contact us for a personalised quote after sharing your pulmonary function reports.
