VM Medical Park Florya Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey provides treatment for aplastic anemia with allogeneic bone marrow transplant. The treatment package typically costs around €70,000–€90,000 and includes comprehensive diagnostics, hospitalization, and extensive support services for international patients. Care is directed by Prof. Dr. Tunç Fişgin, a specialist in hematology and pediatric oncology.
Diagnostic Workup for Aplastic Anemia
Accurate diagnosis is the first step. The clinic performs a full range of necessary tests. These help confirm the diagnosis and assess its severity.
- Complete Blood Count (CBC) to measure levels of blood cells.
- Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy to examine the bone marrow directly.
- Leukemia Panel (Flow Cytometry) to rule out other blood disorders.
- Chest CT Scan and Abdominal Ultrasound for imaging.
- HLA Tissue Typing and Viral Screening which are critical for planning a transplant.
Treatment: Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplant
For eligible patients, an allogeneic bone marrow transplant (allo-BMT) is the primary treatment. This procedure replaces the patient's faulty bone marrow with healthy stem cells from a donor. It aims to cure the underlying condition.
The estimated cost for this transplant is between €70,000 and €90,000. The final price depends on the donor type, such as a haploidentical donor.
The comprehensive package includes many essential services for 90 days:
- All pre-transplant diagnostics and the transplant procedure itself.
- Full hospitalization and medical follow-up for three months.
- Free translation services and local transport in Istanbul.
- Complimentary airport transfers for patient convenience.
Certain expenses are not covered. These typically include international flights, extra hospital days, and additional ICU care. The search for an American donor incurs a significant extra fee.
