Introduction & Clinical Importance

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease damaging the central nervous system, causing fatigue, mobility issues, and vision problems. Treatments like disease-modifying therapies, stem cell transplantation (e.g., aHSCT), and rehabilitation slow progression and improve quality of life.

In USA, California, high costs ($100,000-$150,000+ for stem cell therapy) and insurance hurdles limit access, with long waits for specialists. Turkey excels in medical tourism with JCI-accredited centers, high case volumes, and affordable advanced care.
