Prices in the “Ukraine” column come from MediUkraine’s partner clinics. The Czech Republic and Turkey columns show the lower bounds of prices published by clinics there (for Turkey, also the Turkish Dental Association’s recommended 2026 tariff), collected in August 2026 and converted to US dollars at the rate on the day of collection. A dash means we could not find a comparable published price. In any country, the final cost is set by the clinic after an examination.
Leukaemia treatment is delivered in stages. The first is induction: an intensive course designed to clear tumour cells from the blood and bone marrow and bring the disease into remission. The result is then consolidated, followed by maintenance courses that sustain remission and reduce the risk of relapse. Regimens are based on chemotherapy, targeted and immunotherapy drugs, and some patients have a haematopoietic stem cell transplant, which offers a chance of long-term remission or a complete cure.
A full work-up is carried out before therapy starts, including cytogenetic and molecular tests, whose results determine the choice of regimen. Specialists work according to protocols aligned with international standards: this keeps the disease under control and reduces the severity of side effects.
The prognosis depends on several factors: the type of disease, the patient's age and the response to first-line therapy. Acute forms often respond well to intensive chemotherapy, while chronic forms are kept under control with targeted drugs.
MediUkraine helps you arrange a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod and gives you access to diagnostics and treatment in Ukraine.
Travel. Ukrainian airspace is closed, so there are no commercial flights. Uzhhorod lies right on the border with Slovakia and close to Hungary, so patients usually arrive overland from one of these two countries, by car, bus or train.
Visas. Citizens of the EU, the United Kingdom and the United States do not need a visa for short stays in Ukraine. Rules depend on your citizenship, so check your own before booking.
Safety, plainly. Ukraine is at war. Air raid alerts occur across the country, including in Uzhhorod, and an appointment can be interrupted by one. Several governments advise against travel to Ukraine, and while that advice stands, ordinary travel and medical insurance is often void — confirm your cover with your insurer before you commit to anything.
Language. MediUkraine handles correspondence, scheduling, the written treatment plan and the quote in English. The clinic's team communicates with international patients in English.
Payment. You pay the clinic directly. Our coordination service is free of charge for you.

Chemotherapy remains the main method of treating leukaemia. Cytotoxic drugs destroy the abnormal blood cells, and the regimen is chosen individually according to the type of disease, its stage and your health. Acute forms are treated with multi-drug regimens in successive cycles, while in chronic forms targeted drugs that act on specific molecular targets in the tumour cells are more often used.
Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative option for patients at high risk of relapse or with primary resistance to chemotherapy. The damaged bone marrow is replaced with healthy cells from a donor or from the patient. Both allogeneic and autologous transplants are performed in Ukraine, including reduced-intensity protocols.
Symptomatic and supportive treatment covers the correction of anaemia and low platelet counts, infection control and management of side effects. The MediUkraine team will arrange a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, where the doctor advises how comprehensive care and continuous monitoring can be organised for your case.
Recovery after a course begins during active treatment and continues for many months after it ends. During this period the body needs systematic medical support: monitoring for possible complications, restoring normal blood cell production and returning to your usual level of activity. Rehabilitation protocols take into account your individual characteristics and the type of treatment you received.
The recovery programme includes regular laboratory monitoring of blood counts, ultrasound and other imaging, which detect relapse at an early stage. You have consultations with a haematologist, a cardiologist and other specialists to prevent heart and lung complications after chemotherapy. Psychological support is a separate area: the convalescence period is often emotionally difficult.
MediUkraine coordinates the whole recovery process, from consultations with oncologists to booking the necessary tests. Our platform arranges a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, where the doctor advises where and how to continue treatment and rehabilitation.
Treatment of acute and chronic leukaemia starts with detailed diagnostics. First come morphological analysis of the blood and bone marrow, cytochemical tests, immunocytochemistry and molecular genetic tests, which determine the type of disease precisely. Without these data it is impossible either to choose a treatment regimen or to predict the course of the disease.
Treatment is based on chemotherapy with cytotoxic drugs. Acute forms are treated with intensive remission induction regimens combining several drugs. Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia may be treated with targeted drugs and monoclonal antibodies. Chemotherapy is often combined with supportive care, which prevents complications and helps maintain remission.
MediUkraine helps you find your way: we arrange a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, where the doctor advises where and how to treat your diagnosis, and give you up-to-date information on treatment methods.
Leukaemia treatment in Ukraine costs less than at Western European and American clinics. Chemotherapy, targeted therapy and bone marrow transplantation usually cost less in Ukraine than abroad. For a family, this means a real opportunity to complete a full course of haematology care without an excessive financial burden.
The choice of regimen and the prognosis depend on the cytogenetic and molecular characteristics of the disease, so these tests are part of the work-up.
MediUkraine guides you through the Ukrainian healthcare system: we arrange a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod and help with medical documents. This shortens the time before treatment starts, so you can focus on recovery rather than on paperwork.
The safety of treatment rests on adherence to international protocols and standards in haematological oncology. Accurate diagnosis relies on flow cytometry, genetic analysis and molecular typing of leukaemia cells. This is the basis for an individual treatment plan.
Treatment follows the recommendations of the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO).
The quality of treatment is monitored continuously: side effects are tracked, the response to therapy is assessed and supportive care is provided. MediUkraine helps you plan care taking into account the type of leukaemia and the treatment method required.
📍 Uzhhorod, Ukraine
A multidisciplinary hospital in Uzhhorod, part of a network of medical facilities in western Ukraine: an outpatient clinic, a surgical centre covering 15 specialties and a 30-bed inpatient unit. Its 52 doctors include professors and PhDs; many operations are done as day surgery, with discharge after 1–2 days.
Leukaemia treatment is a set of measures aimed at destroying malignant blood cells, restoring normal blood cell production and strengthening the immune system. Depending on the type of disease (acute or chronic leukaemia), chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted drugs, radiotherapy or bone marrow transplantation are used. The aim is to achieve complete remission and prevent relapse.
Leukaemia treatment in Ukraine costs noticeably less than in Europe or Turkey: both medical care and drugs are cheaper. The price depends on the type of leukaemia, its stage, the length of therapy and whether a bone marrow transplant is needed. The first step is a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic, from USD 20. The doctor sets out the treatment plan and its cost after the examination, and MediUkraine helps you get an estimate before you travel.
See a haematologist if you have symptoms that may point to a blood disorder: persistent fatigue, pale skin, frequent infections, bleeding gums or nosebleeds, unexplained fever, weight loss or enlarged lymph nodes. The earlier the diagnosis is made, the more effective treatment is and the lower the risk of complications.
Before treatment starts, you have a full work-up: blood tests, a bone marrow biopsy, cytogenetic tests, PET-CT and consultations with other specialists. The doctor may recommend adjusting your diet, stopping alcohol and smoking, and controlling your blood sugar and blood pressure. It is also worth supporting your immune system and preparing yourself psychologically: the course can be long.
Yes, but under the close supervision of a haematologist and an obstetrician. The treatment plan is drawn up individually, depending on the type of leukaemia and the stage of pregnancy. In some cases chemotherapy is postponed until the second trimester or gentler regimens are chosen. For other conditions (heart, kidney disease and so on), the doctor chooses drugs with minimal toxic effects.
The main indications are a laboratory-confirmed abnormality in the blood count, atypical (leukaemic) cells in the bone marrow, a raised white cell count, anaemia, bleeding, and an enlarged liver or spleen. Acute leukaemia is treated straight away to prevent damage to internal organs and bring the disease into remission; some chronic forms at an early stage only need regular monitoring until the haematologist decides that treatment is indicated.
A complete cure is possible. Advances in modern haematology make it possible to achieve lasting remission and recovery in a significant proportion of patients, especially in acute leukaemias in children and young people. The outcome depends on the type of leukaemia, the patient's age, the genetic characteristics of the tumour cells and how promptly the disease was diagnosed. Combining chemotherapy, targeted therapy and bone marrow transplantation brings cure rates up to 80–90% in certain forms of acute leukaemia.
Thanks to targeted drugs, chronic forms often become manageable long-term conditions. However, each case requires an individual approach and a full work-up. MediUkraine helps you plan treatment: a haematologist at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod assesses your case and advises where and how to continue it, based on current international leukaemia treatment protocols.
