Abstract (original English)
Here, we describe the clinical course of a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease treated with autologous adipose-derived stem cell therapy. In September 2019, our patient was admitted to Bach Mai Hospital. His post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV 1 ) was 21% and FEV 1 /forced vital capacity (FVC) was 40%. He had suffered from two exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the previous year. He received treatment with autologous stem cells from adipose tissue. Follow-up indicated that autologous stem cells from adipose tissue was a safe treatment and improved the patient's dyspnoea and quality of life.
What this study does not prove
- • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
- • Without an adequate control group, treatment effects cannot be separated from other factors.
Evidence level
Early human evidence such as case series or small samples is exploring possible benefits.
