Success rate of leukemia bone marrow transplantation
I would like to ask about some questions related to sepsis bone marrow transplantation. An editor has a friend whose daughter was six years old in 2020. During that time, the child suddenly developed a fever for no apparent reason, followed by weight loss and poor appetite. When the child was taken to the hospital for examination, it was found that the child had sepsis, and the doctor recommended bone marrow transplantation, but the cost was high, and suitable matching was required. I would like to ask about the success rate of bone marrow transplantation.
How many success rates are there for sepsis bone marrow transplantation
1. Bone marrow transplantation is currently one of the key treatment methods for leukemia in clinical medicine. The main purpose of bone marrow transplantation is to inject normal bone marrow cells from donors into patients with sepsis, thereby improving the patients’ hematopoietic function and immune function. This has a significant effect on the treatment of leukemia and is currently the only opportunity to cure sepsis.
2. However, it is not necessarily the case that all patients who undergo bone marrow transplantation can recover from sepsis. Clinical observations have found that about 60% of acute leukemia patients can achieve a survival period of more than three years through this bone marrow transplantation surgery, and some patients can even achieve a survival period of more than six years.
3. The success of 70 bone marrow transplantation surgery is influenced by many factors. Firstly, this kind of treatment needs to go through five major steps: the first step is to undergo radiotherapy before transplantation, the second step is the actual transplantation, after the successful transplantation, there are also rejection reaction stages and subsequent infection stages, as well as radiotherapy after in vitro fertilization. Only when all five stages are passed can it be definitively considered a success in the actual sense.
Common questions: In many news reports and media, the success rate of bone marrow transplantation is about 50% up and down, but in fact, the medical community believes that the real success rate of bone marrow transplantation is only about 33% up and down. Many patients experience relapses within half a year after bone marrow transplantation, so this cannot be counted as a success. The actual success rate of rehabilitation treatment is only about 33% up and down.
