About Bone Marrow Transplants A bone marrow transplant is a procedure to transplant healthy bone marrow into a patient whose bone marrow is not functioning properly. Problems in bone marrow are often caused by chemotherapy or radiation treatment for cancer. A bone marrow transplant is also done to correct hereditary blood diseases. A bone marrow transplant may prolong the life of a patient who would otherwise die. Normal activities can be resumed as soon as the patient feels well enough and after consulting with the doctor.
