Thalassemia Cure: Message from Dr. Suparno Chakrabarti | International Thalassemia Day

On International Thalassemia Day, Dr Suparno Chakrabarti, HOD & Senior Consultant, Haematology Program Director, BMT at Dharamshila Narayana Hospital, Delhi, wants to share an important message with all parents and children affected by Thalassemia Major.
Dr. Chakrabarti is talking about a cure for thalassemia rather than focusing on continuing treatment with transfusions and chelation. Today, it's possible to cure Thalassemia Major with a bone marrow transplant from a matched family donor. This approach provides a cure rate of over 90%.
For those who don't have a matched family donor, a half-matched family donor (parents, brothers, or sisters) can also successfully provide bone marrow for transplantation. In the hands of experienced doctors, this method gives equally good results.
It's crucial to choose your doctors and institutes with care. Be at the right place and time to receive the best possible treatment. Together, we can work towards a brighter future for those affected by Thalassemia Major. Stay positive and hopeful!
