summary

An old friend of mine has heard that he has leukemia. Now he needs to have a bone marrow transplant operation, and he has the right bone marrow. However, his family's conditions are so poor that he can't afford to pay for the operation, so he has to wait all the time. I really feel sorry for him. Let's talk about the cost of bone marrow transplantation.

What is the cost of bone marrow transplantation

One of the factors affecting the price: it varies with the model. If it is an acute lymphocytic disease or an acute non lymphocytic disease high-level model, it is necessary to carry out high-dose chemotherapy in the sterile cabin. The chemotherapy itself is expensive, and then the cells are killed thoroughly. It is easy to infect complications, and the complications cost a lot of money. Therefore, bone marrow transplantation plus recovery from hospitalization to discharge (ranging from 50 to 70 days), this model generally ranges from 300000 to 600000.

The second factor affecting the price: if CML has the indication of allogeneic transplantation, if the transplantation is successful, the cost of sibling identical transplantation is about 200000, and that of unrelated donor transplantation is about 300000. Of course, if there are transplantation complications, especially serious complications such as GVHD and severe infection, the treatment cost will be more.

The third factor affecting the price: Generally speaking, the cost of transplantation is about 300000 yuan. The specific cost of transplantation depends on the type of donor used and whether there are serious complications in the process of transplantation. The matching rate between siblings was about 25%. If you don't deserve it, you can go to China bone marrow bank or Taiwan Tzu Chi bone marrow bank to find unrelated donors.
