Chapter 980 (1/2)

When he thought that he might have to do bone marrow transplantation later, Guo Xiang felt that this method was too backward. The donor would suffer and the efficiency would be lower. He wanted to ask whether there was a hematopoietic stem cell separator.

In fact, bone marrow transplantation is mainly the transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells, but hematopoietic stem cells can not be isolated before, so we can only directly extract bone marrow. With a stem cell separator, as long as the blood on the human body is extracted, the hematopoietic stem cells are separated and input into the donor through the stem cell separator.

The blood isolated from stem cells can also be transfused back to the original donor's body, which will have less impact on the donor's body.

Guo Xiang inquired around and asked President Lin of Beijing Medical University. He learned that a company that makes medical devices really has this kind of machine, which is still imported.

If you ask, it will cost 300000.

But it's okay. It's not just this time. It can be used in the future. Such as leukemia can be used.

Guo Xiang immediately contacted the company to order, let them deliver goods to the door, and then install and debug. In addition to part of the final payment, most of the payment was settled first to avoid any problems.

Of course, even if there is a problem, people will guarantee it, and people don't do a hammer deal.

On the contrary, they know that Guo Xiang's hospital has strength, and they also give preferential treatment. If they need other machines in the future, they can give priority to the supply.

Guo Xiang is also happy. In this way, he doesn't have to go abroad to buy. A series of procedures such as import customs declaration will take a lot of time and energy. It's better to buy ready-made ones.

After several days of physical examination and matching test, all the examination reports were handed over to Guo Xiang.

”Sister in law, how about it? Can you cure it?” Guo Er asked Guo Xiang.

Guo Xiang nodded while reading the report. ”This thalassemia is also called globin dysgenesis anemia. It is a group of hereditary hemolytic anemia diseases.”

”Anemia or pathological state caused by the lack or deficiency of one or more globin chains in hemoglobin due to genetic defects.”

”Sporadic cases are common in Guangdong, western Guangdong and Sichuan provinces in China. Sporadic cases are found in provinces and regions south of the Yangtze River and less in the north. That's why so many people get the disease there. ”

”It is generally divided into light type, intermediate type and heavy type. Light type generally has no symptoms and does not affect daily life. Take some medicine at most. Intermediate type moderate anemia can generally live to adulthood, and heavy type is easy to die early.”

”Moreover, severe cases have obvious characteristics, such as anemia, hepatosplenomegaly, dysplasia, large head, wide eye distance, forehead process, easy fracture and so on...”

”No wonder I said that Tong Tong and that Tong look a little alike, and they are not very good-looking. It is because they are all seriously ill that they grow like that?” Guo'er said.

Guo Xiang nodded, ”so it's still easy to distinguish. The basic effect of heavy medicine is not great. Blood transfusion can be used, but it is also a palliative rather than a permanent cure. The main thing is hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, which is what we usually call bone marrow transplantation.”

”Is the city so small that it can be transplanted to children?” Asked Guo er.

”Yes, they are brothers and sisters, and their blood types are the same. In fact, it is just the umbilical cord blood of the newborn fetus, but most people don't know and won't save umbilical cord blood. If some people have leukemia children and can't find a match, they deliberately conceive one child in order to save another child... ”

”So it can be?” Guo'er nodded. She studied traditional Chinese medicine, so her knowledge is still very limited.

”So the city and Tong Tong are matched successfully?” Asked Guo er.

”Yes, they have done it before, but even if it costs a lot of money, they can't afford it.” Guo Xiang sighed, so it is necessary to set up this fund by himself, which can help at least some people.

”Can we start?” Asked Guo er.

”It's not that fast. It takes four days to mobilize the city. You go and call their father. ” Guo Xiang said.
