Study Arms (2)
Stem cell
EXPERIMENTALautologous bone marrow mononuclear cell transplantation
Control
NO INTERVENTIONStem cell therapy is not done for this group of spinal cord injury patients
Interventions
Bone marrow is aspirated by a standard procedure. Mononuclear cells are separated by density gradient method and then injected intrathecally by a standard lumbar puncture procedure
