The haematopoietic stem cell transplant service of CHU de Québec-Université Laval, a publicly funded university hospital network in Quebec City.
CHU de Québec-Université Laval is a university hospital network serving Quebec City and eastern Quebec. Its French-language patient information page on haematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation describes the procedure, noting that it is also known as bone marrow transplant or stem cell transplant.
The page sets out two forms of transplant. In an allogeneic transplant, the patient receives cells from a compatible donor after conditioning therapy, which the site describes as high-dose chemotherapy with or without whole-body radiotherapy, intended to suppress the immune system so that the donor cells can be accepted. In an autologous transplant, the patient is both donor and recipient: the high-dose chemotherapy treats the disease and the returned cells restore the body's ability to make blood cells.
The network states that services are delivered across its five affiliated hospitals: the Centre hospitalier de l'Université Laval, Hôpital de l'Enfant-Jésus, Hôpital du Saint-Sacrement, Hôpital Saint-François d'Assise and L'Hôtel-Dieu de Québec. A main switchboard number and a toll-free number are given, together with a staff directory.
The page refers to haemato-oncologists specialising in transplantation but does not name individual physicians. It is written in French and gives no information about cost, as the service sits within Quebec's publicly funded health system.
The page describes the procedure in general terms and does not give a detailed list of individual diseases.
The site states that the network carries out haematopoietic progenitor cell transplants, using either cells from a compatible donor or the patient's own cells.
