Can cell transplantation surgery be performed for lower limb paralysis?

Patient's question:

Doctor, now let me tell you about my situation. Last month, I suffered from severe bedsores due to a car accident. However, because of the surgery, my lower limbs have collapsed. So, can I undergo a cell transplant surgery? Will it cause any serious consequences? Is it possible to have a cell transplant surgery due to the collapse of my lower limbs caused by surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it might not be possible. Cell grafting is not that magical. The collapse of both lower limbs has already occurred, and it might be a sequelae. Only enhancing rehabilitation exercises can help. You should pay attention to safety in daily life; without a car accident, the collapse of both lower limbs would not occur again. Which part is being grafted with cells? Does cell grafting guarantee survival? The collapse of both lower limbs might be related to spinal cord injury.
