summary

Recently, a good friend's baby got leukemia, so we all feel very sorry, my good friend also found a lot of methods for treatment, but has no curative effect, heard that to carry out bone marrow transplantation operation can restore health, and is no different from normal people, family members doubt this, let's talk about whether bone marrow transplantation can be the same as normal people.

Can you become a normal person after bone marrow transplantation

First: Generally speaking, if the matching is appropriate, the transplanted bone marrow will work normally, just like normal people. But in fact, most of the time we talk about bone marrow transplantation only means that we infuse the donor's bone marrow from the vein into the patient's body to replace the diseased bone marrow, and its success rate is still subject to many factors and time tests, such as chemotherapy before transplantation, transplantation, immune rejection after transplantation, infection and chemotherapy after transplantation.

Second: only if we pass the above five tests in turn, and have a genetic test six months later, we can find the gene expression of the donor in the patient's body, and the bone marrow, blood and important organs are normal without obvious symptoms, can we really succeed and be the same as normal people. It is common that some patients relapse one month, three months, six months or even one year after transplantation.

Third, it is closely related to the patient's disease type, organ function, autoimmune reaction, complications during transplantation, the matching rate of gene loci between donor and patient, and the comprehensive level of transplantation hospital. The true success rate of bone marrow transplantation is about 50% reported by the news media, but about 33% recognized by the medical profession. That is, 1 / 3, 1 / 3, 1 / 3 viewpoint: 1 / 3 patients failed in transplantation; 1 / 3 patients relapsed within half a year after transplantation; 1 / 3 patients were successful in transplantation.

matters needing attention

After the operation of bone marrow transplantation, if the matching is appropriate and effective treatment, it can be the same as normal people, but if the rehabilitation treatment is not carried out according to the requirements, the disease will recur in serious cases, which should be different from person to person.
