      CHENNAI, la India, 15 de mayo de 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- El Apollo Proton Cancer Center (APCC) en Chennai marca un hito en el tratamiento del cáncer en la India al realizar por vez primera y con éxito un procedimiento de irradiación total de médula ósea como protocolo de acondicionamiento en preparación de un trasplante de médula ósea.

Jose M Easow, Consultant Medical Oncology and Hematology In - charge of BMT Unit, Apollo Cancer Speciality Hospital, Patient Ms.Fatima (35) Oman, Dr . Prathap C Reddy,Executive Chairman, Apollo Hospitals Group, Dr. Preetha Reddy, Vice Chairperson, Apollo Hospitals Group, Dr. Srinivas Chilukuri - Senior Consultant Radiation Oncology, Dr . Sapna Nangia, Senior Consultant, Radiation Oncology at Apollo Proton Cancer Centre, Chennai

      La Dra. Preetha Reddy, vicepresidenta de Apollo Hospitals Group, dijo: "El Apollo Proton Cancer Centre ha revolucionado la atención oncológica y nos llena de orgullo que, a tan solo unos meses de su inauguración, el APCC conquiste este relevante hito y primicia en el país. Este logro valida nuestra inversión en el APCC al traer la mejor y más novedosa tecnología médica a la India. Sin duda, en el futuro veremos al APCC marcar muchos hitos más y mantenerse a la vanguardia en la batalla contra el cáncer, no solo en beneficio de pacientes indios, sino de todo el sudeste asiático".

      Una enfermera de 35 años, proveniente de Omán, siguió el procedimiento en el primer centro de terapia con protones del sudeste asiático. Había sido diagnosticada con leucemia mieloide crónica, combinada con leucemia fenotípica aguda. Con ese diagnóstico fue referida a Apollo Hospitals para un trasplante de médula ósea. Ahí, los médicos decidieron recurrir a la irradiación total de médula ósea como tratamiento previo al trasplante.

      "La paciente fue ingresada el mes pasado tras un detallado diagnóstico; nuestro equipo decidió proceder a la irradiación total de la médula, seguida de quimio y trasplante periférico de células madre. El hermano de la paciente resultó ser un donante con compatibilidad total. La paciente ha respondido muy bien al tratamiento y se está preparando para ser dada de alta", dijo el Dr. Jose M. Easow.

      Fatima, la paciente, comentó: "Estoy muy agradecida con el gobierno de Omán por elegir mi caso y enviarme a Apollo Hospitals en Chennai, el mejor lugar para el tratamiento del cáncer en la India. Me aconsejaron un trasplante de médula ósea y mi hermano fue seleccionado como donante. Ingresé el 5 de abril y desde ese día me sentí en casa. Soy enfermera y sé cómo los efectos secundarios de la radioterapia afectan la normalidad en la vida de los pacientes. El procedimiento de irradiación total de médula que me administraron fue distinto y salvó mi vida sin pasar por tantos efectos secundarios. Este procedimiento me hace sentir más tranquila y con mejor ánimo".

      "Gracias a la moderna tecnología radiológica, hoy es posible realizar procesos de irradiación total a la médula ósea que no afectan a los órganos sanos ni les causan daños por radiación", dijo el Dr. Srinivas Chilukuri, consultor senior en radiación oncológica.
