Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bone marrow transplant, and why would someone need one?

Doctors use bone marrow transplants to replace damaged or unhealthy (only a few healthy stem cells remain) bone marrow with healthy bone marrow. Individuals with blood cancers like leukemia or specific genetic problems often require them. This helps their bodies start producing healthy blood again.

What types of bone marrow transplants are available to patients in India?

Patients in India can receive transplants using their own or autologous stem cells, cells from a donor (allogeneic), or even stem cells obtained from umbilical cords. The choice depends on the patient’s health and the availability of donors.

How effective are bone marrow transplants in India?

Bone marrow transplants in India have demonstrated excellent success rates, typically ranging from 80% to 90%. These outcomes depend on the patient's medical condition and overall health.

What are the well-known hospitals in India for bone marrow transplants?

They are specialised transplant units that offer services for both national and international patients, and are regarded as leaders in both adult and pediatric treatments. Some of the leading hospitals for these transplants are:

  • {max-super-speciality-hospital-patparganj}
  • {artemis-health-institute}
  • {apollo-health-city-hospital}
  • {global-health}
  • {fortis-hiranandani-hospital}
What type of doctor should I consult for the BMT procedure in India?

In India, leading hospitals have BMT Units staffed with multidisciplinary teams that include Haematologists/BMT specialists, Medical Oncologists, Transplant Coordinators, and/or Pediatric Hematologists. Some of the specialists include:

  • {prashant-mehta}
  • {gurdeep-singh-sethi}
  • {pravas-chandra-mishra}
  • {raghuram-c-p}
  • {dinesh-mishra}
How long would I need to stay in India to undergo a bone marrow transplant (BMT)?

The entire transplant process often lasts 4 to 6 weeks. This time covers pre-treatment, the transplant itself, and a brief recovery period. Depending on your condition, your medical team may recommend an extended stay for follow-up care if needed.

Can international patients receive a bone marrow transplant (BMT) in India?

Yes, they can. Many top hospitals are equipped to manage international patients. They provide translators, assist with visa arrangements, coordinate accommodations, and offer coordinators to support throughout the process, as well as additional services if needed.

Can I, or someone I know, donate bone marrow in India?

Yes. Healthy individuals between 18 and 55 years old can donate bone marrow if they meet the qualification criteria. Hospital staff and donor organisations help with the tests and paperwork you’ll need to complete.

How long does it take to recover from a BMT?

Recovery time depends on the circumstances. If you use your own cells, it takes 3 to 6 months. If the cells come from a donor, it might take up to a year. Your immune system will need time to strengthen. During this period, you should remain vigilant for signs of infection and report any unusual occurrences.

Is bone marrow transplant a cure?

Yes. For many individuals, it can be life-saving and potentially curative. But success depends on a lot of factors, and even after the transplant, long-term follow-up is essential to ensure there is no relapse of cancer or other diseases.

What is the average hospital stay for a BMT patient at your facility?

The length depends on the type of transplant, any complications, and how well the body accepts the graft. Discharge is based on recovery factors, including stable blood counts and effective infection control. Patients may need temporary accommodation nearby for outpatient follow-up care.
