Mandaya Royal Hospital Puri’s Blood Cancer Center is partnering with the National University Cancer Institute (NCIS-NUH) Singapore to offer comprehensive care and treatment for blood cancer patients. This is certainly great news for those seeking the best services and treatment options.
Mandaya Blood Cancer Center Collaborates with NCIS-NUH Singapore
The partnership between Mandaya Royal Hospital Puri and NCIS-NUH Singapore involves offering complete blood cancer services and treatments.
Every blood cancer case received by Mandaya Puri Hospital will be directly discussed with the NCIS-NUH Singapore team, the only cancer center in Singapore that treats both children and adults within a single facility.
The results of discussions between doctors from Mandaya Puri Hospital and NCIS-NUH Singapore will help ensure patients receive the most optimal and accurate services and treatments.
This collaboration can assist in determining diagnoses, evaluating patient conditions, assessing treatment effectiveness, and choosing the most suitable therapies or medications.
The partnership brings new hope to blood cancer patients in Indonesia by offering care tailored to individual needs.
Get a Second Opinion from Mandaya and NCIS Singapore Doctors
The collaboration also allows blood cancer patients in Indonesia to obtain a second opinion regarding their conditions.
A second opinion can provide patients and their families with more insight into the most appropriate treatment options. To receive expert input from Singaporean cancer specialists, patients can contact Mandaya Royal Hospital Puri directly—no need to worry about finding contacts or intermediaries.
The Mandaya medical team will coordinate discussions with the Singapore doctors to review the patient’s case, ensuring clarity regarding treatment needs and the severity of the condition.
Facilities at Mandaya Puri Blood Cancer Center
In addition to its collaboration with NCIS-NUH Singapore, Mandaya Blood Cancer Center also offers complete facilities, including:
1. Therapheresis
Mandaya is the only private hospital in Indonesia with an apheresis machine. Apheresis or therapheresis therapy is a procedure that allows doctors to remove or filter damaged red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma to “clean” or eliminate them, alleviating disorders caused by abnormal blood cells.
This is done using a centrifuge machine that draws blood from the patient, spins it to separate its components, and then returns the desired components to the body. It can be done multiple times as needed.
2. Blood Transfusion & Irradiated Blood Transfusion (for Blood Cancer)
Mandaya Puri also provides blood transfusions to treat blood cancer. Transfusions supply healthy blood cells when a patient’s body cannot produce them on its own, relieving symptoms and side effects.
In addition, the hospital offers irradiated blood transfusions—blood that has been treated with X-rays or other forms of radiation to prevent Transfusion-Associated Graft-versus-Host Disease (TA-GvHD), a serious or potentially fatal complication caused by donor white blood cells attacking the recipient.
3. Leukemia Emergency-Ready Hospital (Neutropenia, Thrombocytopenia, Hemolytic Anemia)
Mandaya Puri is equipped to handle emergency blood disorder cases like neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and hemolytic anemia, with a team of specialists on standby.
4. Radiotherapy
To treat blood cancer, Mandaya Royal Hospital Puri uses an advanced radiotherapy machine called LINAC ELEKTA. This machine provides precise cancer cell targeting, includes 4D technology integrated with robotics, protects healthy tissue, and features built-in entertainment (patients can watch videos or listen to music during procedures).
5. ICIR/PICIR Rooms
Patients undergoing bone marrow transplants or CAR T-cell therapy can stay in ICIR/PICIR (Immuno-Compromised Isolation Rooms), specially designed to protect against infection.
6. Immunotherapy and Chemotherapy
The hospital offers systemic therapy, including both immunotherapy and chemotherapy, to fight blood cancer.
Immunotherapy strengthens the immune system to attack cancer cells, while chemotherapy uses drugs to directly kill them.
