Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the cost of bone marrow transplant in India?

A: Allogeneic BMT (matched sibling) costs $18,000–$22,000. Haploidentical (half-matched) BMT costs $22,000–$28,000. Autologous BMT (stem cell rescue) costs $12,000–$18,000. These figures are 60–70% less than European and Turkish BMT centres.

Q: Can a family member from Kazakhstan donate bone marrow in India?

A: Yes. Family members (siblings, parents, children) can donate bone marrow or peripheral stem cells in India. HLA typing is done in Delhi, and the donor spends approximately 2 weeks in India for the full donation process.

Q: How long does a bone marrow transplant patient need to stay in India?

A: BMT patients need to stay in India for 4–6 weeks minimum during the transplant and early recovery phase, followed by monthly remote follow-up. A clean room (HEPA-filtered isolation) is provided during the high-risk engraftment period.

Q: Is thalassaemia curable with bone marrow transplant in India?

A: Yes. Matched sibling BMT offers a cure rate of 80–90% for thalassaemia major in children under 10. India has pioneered thalassaemia BMT for international patients, with results matching the best Italian and Greek centres.

Q: What happens if there is no matched donor available?

A: India’s top hospitals have access to international bone marrow registries (DKMS, NMDP). Haploidentical transplant from a half-matched family member is also an increasingly successful option offered at major Indian BMT centres.
