👤 Patient Profile: Anvar, 31 — Tashkent, Uzbekistan
Diagnosis: Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 1 (SCA1)
Anvar, a 31-year-old man from Tashkent, Uzbekistan, was diagnosed with hereditary spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 — a progressive neurodegenerative condition that had already affected close family members, including his mother and sister.By the time of consultation, he was experiencing gait instability, reduced balance, impaired fine motor control, and increasing speech difficulties.
🧬 Clinical Approach at BioCells Medical
2 months ago Anvar began a personalised treatment programme at BioCells Medical, designed to target neurodegeneration and functional decline.Due to the complexity of the case and mobility challenges, our medical team travelled to Uzbekistan to perform the treatment on site, ensuring comfort and continuity.
The programme included:
Bone marrow extraction followed by laboratory cultivation of neuroinduced autologous stem cells
Systemic intravenous infusion of stem cells and purified exosomes
Intrathecal injection for direct delivery to the central nervous system
A personalised neuro-motor rehabilitation plan, adjusted to Anvar’s stage and clinical needs
The full protocol was delivered over two consecutive days, followed by supportive exercises and continuous monitoring.
📈 First Results (1 Month After Treatment)
Clinical and functional improvements began to emerge within weeks:
Balance and coordination improved, making daily tasks and movements more stable
Muscle tone normalised in both upper and lower limbs
Greater physical endurance, including easier stair climbing
Most notably: clearer speech, better vocal control, and more confident articulation
Anvar’s self-confidence and autonomy improved visibly, and his family reported smoother communication and interaction.
🔁 Follow-Up and Ongoing Care
Anvar continues his individual rehabilitation plan, guided remotely by our specialists. His condition remains stable, and further treatment is under consideration depending on clinical evolution.
