Del(7q) (MDS) – Cost, Symptoms, and Diagnosis

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a group of blood disorders that affect the production of blood cells in the bone marrow. One of the subtypes of MDS is Del(7q) (MDS) which is caused by a deletion of genetic material on the long arm of chromosome 7. This subtype is also known as 7q deletion syndrome. In this blog, we will discuss the cost, symptoms, and diagnosis of Del(7q) (MDS) in India.

Cost of Del(7q) (MDS) Diagnosis in India

The cost of diagnosing Del(7q) (MDS) in India can vary depending on various factors such as the hospital, location, and type of tests performed. Generally, the cost of a complete blood count (CBC) test, which is the initial test used to diagnose MDS, ranges from INR 300-500. However, more advanced tests such as bone marrow biopsy and cytogenetic testing can cost up to INR 5000-8000. The cost of treatment for Del(7q) (MDS) can vary depending on the severity of the disease and the type of treatment required.

Symptoms of Del(7q) (MDS)

The symptoms of Del(7q) (MDS) can vary depending on the severity of the disease and the subtype. Some common symptoms of Del(7q) (MDS) include:

• Fatigue and weakness
• Frequent infections
• Bruising and bleeding easily
• Shortness of breath
• Pale skin
• Enlarged liver or spleen
• Weight loss

If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to consult a doctor immediately.

Diagnosis of Del(7q) (MDS)

The diagnosis of Del(7q) (MDS) involves a series of tests and procedures to determine the subtype and severity of the disease. Some of the tests used to diagnose Del(7q) (MDS) include:

• Complete blood count (CBC) test
• Bone marrow biopsy
• Cytogenetic testing
• Molecular testing

Once the subtype and severity of the disease are determined, the doctor will recommend a course of treatment that may include chemotherapy, bone marrow transplant, or supportive care.
