Abstract_ Severe spinal cord injury SCI leads to devastating neurological deficits and disabilities which necessitates spending a great deal of health budget for psychological and healthcare problems of these patients and their relatives. This justifies the cost of research into the new modalities for treatment of spinal cord injuries even in developing countries. Apart from surgical management and nerve grafting several other approaches have been adopted for management of this condition including pharmacologic and gene therapy cell therapy and use of different cell-free or cell-seeded bioscaffolds. In current paper the recent developments for therapeutic delivery of stem and nonstem cells to the site of injury and application of cell-free and cell-seeded natural and synthetic scaffolds have been reviewed.
