Bone marrow transplantation in Medical Park Bahcelievler Hospital
About the clinic
Bone marrow transplantation at Medical Park Bahçelievler Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, provides a treatment option for conditions like thalassemia and leukemia. The procedure may cost around $65,000 USD, depending on the donor type. A key advantage is the clinic's position as Turkey's leading transplant center, which works with major international donor registries.
The hospital is accredited by Joint Commission International (JCI). It is part of the MLPCARE Group. The 19-story facility has 242 beds and advanced intensive care units. It performs the highest number of bone marrow transplants in the country.
The clinic specializes in allogeneic transplants. This uses stem cells from a donor. The first step is to find a fully matched family donor. If unavailable, the team searches unrelated donors in Turkey or abroad through global networks. These include the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT).
The treatment package is designed for international patients. It typically includes:
- Diagnostic workup (bone marrow tests, genetic testing, HLA typing)
- Hospitalization for 15-40 days in a standard room
- Post-transplant follow-up checks for 90-180 days
- Accommodation for the patient and an attendant for 30-60 days
- Translation services and local transport, including airport transfers
Pricing varies based on the donor source. A transplant with a fully matched family donor may cost around $65,000 USD. An unrelated Turkish donor transplant is typically around $75,000. Using an unrelated European donor may cost around 80,000 EUR. A haploidentical donor transplant, using a partially matched family member, is often priced around 90,000 EUR.
An initial diagnostic package for bone marrow preparation and HLA typing may cost around $5,000 USD. This requires a 1-2 day hospital stay. The total process, from diagnosis through monitoring, requires an extended stay in Turkey. The clinic handles coordination with international bone marrow banks to aid the donor search.
