The doctor pointed out that the treatment for this disease is quite expensive, since it uses gene therapy that costs up to 40 million pesos.
“Unfortunately, it is a pathology that, yes, has a treatment, but also its costs, as they are extremely high, We are talking about a gene therapy that, one application, costs us about 40 million pesos and we are using another therapy that will replace the gene that is affected, which would be 3 MDP every four months for a lifetime.”
