Leukemia bone marrow exchange is also known as bone marrow transplantation. How long a person can live after bone marrow transplantation is directly related to the success of the bone marrow transplant. There are many factors that affect the success of bone marrow transplantation, commonly chemotherapy before transplantation, whether immune rejection occurs after transplantation, whether infection occurs, chemotherapy after transplantation, etc. If all of these conditions can be successfully passed indicates a successful transplant.
The possibility of relapse after bone marrow transplantation in leukemia patients is related to the type of disease, organ function, autoimmune capacity, transplantation process and donor-patient genetic match rate, and transplantation technique. In general, more than 60% of patients with acute leukemia can survive more than 3 years after an allogeneic bone marrow transplant, with some up to 5-6 years, and more than 80% of patients with chronic leukemia can survive more than 3 years after a bone marrow transplant, with some more than 5-6 years, to achieve a cure.
Patients with leukemia have low resistance and post-transplant care is also important. Pay attention to keeping the air in the room fresh, disinfecting it regularly, going to public places less often, avoiding strenuous activities, especially during chemotherapy myelosuppression, wearing a good mask and replacing it with a new one in a timely manner, and paying attention to protective isolation. Eat an easily digestible diet, the diet should not be too hot and too hard to avoid bleeding. Pay attention to dietary hygiene, especially do not eat raw, hard, coarse, spicy and other unclean and hard foods.
