In the past, diagnosing and treating babies born with sickle cell anemia was a challenging process. However, thanks to current medical advancements, the disease can now be diagnosed early and quickly, and effective treatment methods that significantly reduce its symptoms and complications can be applied. Due to these developments, it has become possible for sickle cell anemia patients receiving treatment to live into their 50s today. This life expectancy is even higher for patients who undergo transplantation at an early age.
