Neobladder reconstruction

[mhortig]

Has anyone had the Neobladder reconstruction procedure done in Thailand. I would prefer to go to Chiangmai if possible. Please give name of hospital, doctor and cost. Contact info for the doctor would be useful.  Anybody know if Chiangmai University hospital can provide this procedure?

I can not answer but do not believe it is that common a procedure here so might be best to look in Bangkok.

 

I went with normal conduit for cancer removal and cost was a bit over 1 million baht at Bangkok Hospital.  Am older age so this option seemed to fit better and found it easy to adapt to and have not had any operation issues (done about 4 years ago).

There is some experience with this in Thailand but in Bangkok, I don't think CM is a good choice if you want this option.

 

This doctor has expertise in it https://www.bangkokhospital.com/en/doctor/dr-tanet-thaidumrong

And he can also be seen at Rajawithi Hospital (government hospital)  https://www.rajavithi.go.th/eng/index.php

There is an after hours clinic at Rajavithi 9th floor at station 1 (register oin f=ground floor first)

 

This is an article he authored which has an email link if you want to try to contact him directly  http://www.jmatonline.com/index.php/jmat/article/view/2501

 

There is also a team at Ramathobdi Hospital (government hospital) which can do this:  https://med.mahidol.ac.th/qsmc/th/service/premium_clinic-th

 

Prof. Premsant Sangkum - also at Vuchaiyut Hiosp https://www.vichaiyut.com/en/profile_doctor/dr-premsant-sangkum/

Pol. Gen.  Patcharatrakul  - also at Bumrubgrad  https://www.bumrungrad.com/doctors/Suthep-Patcharatrakul

Will add that I initially tried to use Rajavithi Hospital after hours clinic as that hospital has a full time team doing bladder operations but after 3 month queue operation canceled while on OR table due intensive care room not available - as cancer was growing could not wait another queue so went to Bangkok Hospital to have same week.  Cost at Rajavithi would only have been about 80k (for Ileal conduit type) plus room/medications.
