Bone Marrow Transplant in Ghana

Bone marrow transplant in Ghana is an emerging, transformative care option for patients with leukemia, lymphoma, sickle cell disease, thalassemia, and inherited blood disorders.

Recent investments, international collaborations, and successful procedures highlight Ghana's steady progress, with all advanced BMT services currently centered in the capital, Accra.

Patients with rare or complex diagnoses often travel to India, Turkey, or South Africa for advanced care, but Ghana’s growing program offers new local hope.

Cost of Bone Marrow Transplant in Ghana

The average cost of BMT in cities like Accra is between $15,000-$50,000 and accurate costs look like this:

  • $15,000–$23,000 (full-match sibling donor)

  • $30,000–$35,000 (autologous)

  • $35,000–$50,000 (unrelated or haploidentical donor)

Lower costs generally reflect matched sibling donors and straightforward cases; unrelated/haploidentical or advanced cases are more expensive.

Charges usually include workup, HLA-typing, apheresis, hospital stay, main medication, and limited post-transplant follow-up.

Considerations for Bone Marrow Transplant Abroad

  • Complex or rare BMT indications: Patients may travel to India or Turkey for advanced protocols, wider donor registries, or highly specialized care not yet routine in Ghana.

  • Local strengths: Accra delivers initial diagnostics, HLA-typing, stabilizing care, and growing inpatient expertise, which is crucial for West African patients needing pre-op and follow-up close to home.

  • Financial support: Charitable pricing and foundation discounts are sometimes available in Ghana, but most pay out-of-pocket. India offers the widest insurance, sponsor, and donor registry options.

  • Outlook: Ghana’s BMT program is evolving quickly, and ongoing investments are expected to reduce cost, expand donor types, and boost outcomes in the years ahead.

Bone marrow transplant in Ghana is now a local and regional reality, centered completely in Accra. Ghana offers solid value - well below Dubai or Turkey and directly competitive with medical tourism to India.

For families seeking affordable, high-quality, and culturally connected care - especially for sickle cell disease and childhood leukemia - Ghana is a top new destination.
