At Fortis Hospital, India, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive care for individuals affected by thalassemia. Our Thalassemia Center offers advanced diagnostic services, personalized treatment plans, and compassionate support to help patients manage this genetic blood disorder effectively. Whether you are living with thalassemia or caring for a loved one with the condition, we are here to support you every step of the way.
Our Services:
- Diagnostic Testing: Our state-of-the-art laboratory facilities enable us to perform a range of diagnostic tests to accurately diagnose thalassemia and assess its severity. These tests may include complete blood count (CBC), hemoglobin electrophoresis, and genetic testing.
- Treatment Planning: Our team of hematologists, genetic counselors, and support staff work collaboratively to develop personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique needs and medical history. Treatment options may include blood transfusions, iron chelation therapy, and bone marrow transplantation.
- Blood Transfusions: We provide safe and effective blood transfusions to individuals with thalassemia to help manage anemia and improve overall health. Our transfusion services adhere to strict protocols to ensure patient safety and comfort.
- Iron Chelation Therapy: Long-term blood transfusions can lead to iron overload in individuals with thalassemia. We offer iron chelation therapy to remove excess iron from the body and prevent complications associated with iron overload.
- Bone Marrow Transplantation: For select patients with severe thalassemia, bone marrow transplantation may offer a potential cure by replacing diseased bone marrow with healthy donor cells. Our experienced transplant team provides comprehensive care before, during, and after the transplant procedure.
- Genetic Counseling: Our genetic counselors offer support and guidance to individuals and families affected by thalassemia. They provide education about the genetic inheritance patterns of thalassemia, discuss family planning options, and offer emotional support throughout the counseling process.
Patient Support and Education:
- We understand that living with thalassemia can pose physical, emotional, and practical challenges. Our Thalassemia Center offers ongoing support services, including counseling, support groups, and access to resources to help patients and their families cope with the condition.
- Through educational materials, workshops, and seminars, we empower patients and their caregivers with the knowledge and tools they need to effectively manage thalassemia and lead fulfilling lives.

FAQs
-
What is thalassemia?Thalassemia is a genetic blood disorder characterized by abnormal hemoglobin production, leading to reduced red blood cell (RBC) production and anemia.
-
What causes thalassemia?Thalassemia is caused by mutations in the genes that control hemoglobin production. These mutations can be inherited from one or both parents.
-
What are the types of thalassemia?There are two main types: alpha thalassemia and beta thalassemia. Each type has different subtypes and severity levels.
-
What are the symptoms of thalassemia?Symptoms can vary depending on the type and severity of thalassemia but may include fatigue, weakness, pale skin, jaundice, bone deformities, and slow growth.
-
How is thalassemia diagnosed?Thalassemia is diagnosed through blood tests that measure hemoglobin levels and the size and shape of red blood cells. Genetic testing may also be done to identify specific gene mutations.
-
Is thalassemia curable?Currently, there is no cure for thalassemia. However, treatments such as blood transfusions, iron chelation therapy, and bone marrow transplants can help manage the symptoms and improve quality of life.
-
How is thalassemia inherited?Thalassemia is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder, meaning that a person must inherit two mutated copies of the gene (one from each parent) to develop the disease.
-
Can thalassemia be prevented?Thalassemia can be prevented through genetic counseling and testing before pregnancy, especially for couples with a family history of the disorder.
-
What is the life expectancy for individuals with thalassemia?Life expectancy varies depending on the severity of the disease and the effectiveness of treatment. With proper medical care, many people with thalassemia can live long and relatively healthy lives.
-
Can people with thalassemia have children?Yes, but individuals with thalassemia should consult with a genetic counselor before starting a family to understand the risk of passing the disorder to their children and to explore options for prenatal diagnosis and treatment.
