Dear All.
The purpose of starting this interesting topic "Hair Transplant In CML(Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia ) Patient" to give a true picture of the safety profile.
I have came across a 65 years old Patient who is suffering from CML since July 2006.Now he is complete Remission phae since 6 monthes while using Gleevec tablet per day since then.He had last appointment with his Doctor on 10th Aug 2009.According to his doctor,his blood reports shows complete molecular Response.
Your valuable comments in this regard will be wellcomed.

Dr. Ahamd,

I'm failing to understand what kind of input you're seeking from this community.

Did you intend to post photos along with this topic? What type of feedback, if any, can we offer?

Best wishes,

Bill

Dear Bill.
The purpose of starting this topic to know the valuable comments of leading hair tranplant surgeons across the world "Is Hair transplant safe in patient suffering from CML and associated risks invloved"

Dear Dr Ashfaq

I really tried to refrain from attempting to give my views over your newly formed comments.

In my opinion there are 4 stages in the carrier of any person but more so in a carrier of a Doctor.
Stage 1) what to do you obviously know what to do and that is hair transplant.
Stage 2) how to do, I am sure that buy now you would have learned from some one how to do
Stage 3) When to do, I am sure that most of the time we know that this is the time to do a hair transplant of on a MPB patient or an allopecia pt.
Stage 4) This is a stage not many professional will ever achieve and that is when not to do

Firs of all a 65 year old gentleman with a phillidelphia positice chromosome chronic myeloid leukemia diagnosed in 2006 and has been on treatment till 10th August 2009. its been only a month and we are rushing into the hair transplant surgery.
No wonder Bill was surprised on the thread.
The answer that a kid should be knowing is leave him alone for time being.
Let him spend couple of years in a complete remission phase and then if all fine one can ponder on the idea of hair transplant in that gentle man.

CML is not that simple a problem and two months is tooooooooo short a time to even give him a consultation.

Money is not every thing.
