Bone marrow transplantation in India

Bone Marrow Transplantation in India

Bone marrow transplantation in the modern world is a salvation for many people who suffer from oncological diseases.

This procedure involves the direct introduction into the patient's body of "healthy" bone marrow, harvested in advance, or the peripheral blood stem cells.

A bone marrow transplant becomes necessary when:

  • the organ is directly affected by the disease. The causes of this are diseases such as: leukemias, lymphomas, aplastic anemia, congenital immunodeficiency states, etc.
  • suppressed in the treatment of other diseases. High doses of radiation and chemotherapy, which are used in the treatment of malignant tumors, destroy the cells of patient's bone marrow.

In these cases, the patient's new blood cells do not appear. The immunity becomes greatly weakened. Even the common cold can become a serious challenge. Only bone marrow transplantation could help in such cases.

Nowadays, more and more people are becoming medical tourists. Clients of medical institutions are looking for quality and efficiency. In many countries, transplant prices are extremely high, and only a few provide the best result at an acceptable price. Therefore, more and more people are going to bone marrow transplant in India.

What are the benefits of bone marrow transplantation in India?

Not so long ago, the Indian medical community set a goal - to create high-quality European medicine based on the clinics of India. It was a large-scale goal, for which the multimillion budget was spent. Today we can say with confidence - they have achieved the desired result. Modern hospitals in India provide high quality medical services.

Indian medicine has made a major breakthrough in the field of transplantology. The clinics in India have modern equipment. Doctors have extensive experience in organ transplantation, which sometimes even exceeds the experience of European countries.

The number of successful results of bone marrow transplants in modern Indian clinics compete confidently with the results of Germany, Israel, and the USA. But unlike other countries, the cost of bone marrow transplantation in India is much cheaper.

How is bone marrow transplantation performed in clinics in India?

Bone marrow transplantation

A bone marrow transplant in clinics in India is carried out strictly according to the global treatment algorithm. First, the patient's required method of transplantation is determined:

  • Autotransplantation – transplantation of the patient's own cells. Before the procedure of radiation or chemotherapy, cells are taken from patient, prepared and they are turned back to the patient, thereby providing healing effect.
  • Allogenic transplantation - stem cell material is taken from a donor. The donor may be a close relative, or use material from a donor bank.

A bone marrow transplant surgery consists of several stages:

  1. Sampling of material (stem cells). It can be performed via the peripheral vein of the donor – just like usual blood donation. Or, directly from the bone marrow, a special needle is be used to perforate the bone and collect material. Procedure is performed under general anesthesia and is completely safe for the donor;
  2. Preparing the patient for transplantation;
  3. Transplantation. The patient is placed a catheter on the peripheral vein, and the material is drip in;
  4. The period of engraftment of the material. The patient is placed in a sterile chamber, where he is under the constant supervision of the clinic staff until he is completely cured.
