*These are diseases for which stem cell treatments have been shown to be potentially beneficial, but additional studies are required before they can be used as standard therapy. These investigational uses are not consistent with current labeling. Stem cells from the placenta and cord blood are indicated to rebuild blood.
†Partial list of the more than 80 diseases that have been treated with cord blood stem cell transplants.
‡LifebankUSA has not yet released stem cells to treat these diseases.
The chance that a child will use his/her own stored stem cells during his/her lifetime is estimated at 1 in 400 (J.J. Nietfeld and F. Verter). These odds may increase if there is a family history of certain blood disorders or cancers. The potential risks and benefits of stem cell transplantation vary and depend on many factors, such as the amount and quality of the stem cells collected, the HLA compatibility between recipient and donor, and the client’s overall health. Talk with your health care provider. For more information, call us at 1-877-LIFEBANKUSA 1-877-543-3226 or visit www.lifebankusa.com.
" For couples who want to bank the most stem cells possible, LifebankUSA offers the one and only placenta-derived stem cell banking service. Combining these cells with those found in cord blood yields more stem cells and may offer a lifesaving treatment option. I recommend that anyone who is going to bank cord blood also bank placenta-derived stem cells. It does make a difference.”

"In a recent LifebankUSA newsletter, I read about a boy with leukemia who had been saved thanks to LifebankUSA. This, along with a member of my family having died of leukemia, brought home just how important it is to bank stem cells and made me feel thankful that I had the opportunity to store my children's stem cells."
