Small intestine cancer treatment at Istinye University Liv Hospital Bahcesehir in Istanbul combines academic research with advanced clinical care. An oncologist consultation may cost around $100, while specialized PET/CT scans are around $700 and liquid biopsies cost around $1,500. The hospital holds JCI and ISO 9001:2015 accreditations, focusing on multidisciplinary tumor management.
Clinical oncologist Assoc. Prof. Dr. Tahsin Ozatli manages cancer care with over 10 years of experience. The facility uses a PET-CT system capable of detecting tumors as small as 1 mm. This high level of precision helps doctors find small bowel lesions early. The medical team reviews each case to decide between systemic therapy, radiation, or surgical intervention.
The hospital offers several ways to treat small intestine cancer based on the stage and location of the tumor. Treatment plans often combine surgery with medication to remove the primary mass and prevent spread.
Patients staying at the hospital receive 5-star service during their recovery. Most surgical patients spend between 3 and 14 days in the hospital depending on the complexity of the procedure. You can request a personalized treatment plan for small intestine cancer through Bookimed.

Istinye Liv Hospital is located on the Bosphorus coast 40 minutes drive from the Istanbul New Airport.
2,700 international patients choose Istinye Liv for treatment annually.
Doctors of the Oncology Department accept children and adults.
PET-CT is available here for an accurate diagnosing and individual treatment plan development. Using PET-CT, doctors can detect even the smallest tumors up to 1 mm in size.
The Istinye oncologists carry out such cancer treatments as:
This method is considered the most minimally invasive — the operation is performed through small incisions of 0.5-5 cm. In contrast, an open intervention requires the 10-15 cm incision.
Laparoscopy minimizes the damage of healthy tissues and blood loss, so the patient recovers faster than after open surgery.
The Istinye Liv oncologists apply chemotherapy for comprehensive cancer treatment. There are such types of chemo as:
Radiation therapy is used for benign and malignant tumors treatment with ionizing radiation. It destroys cancer cells and therefore stops the development of the disease.
Radiotherapy is prescribed both independently and in combination with other cancer treatment methods.
RFA affects the tumor with a high temperature of radiofrequency waves. During the procedure, the doctor uses an ultrasound or CT scan to accurately direct the radiofrequency waves and not damage the healthy tissues.
Radiofrequency ablation is used to treat small neoplasms up to 3 cm in bones, lungs, liver, kidneys, adrenal glands, and prostate gland.
This cancer treatment method stimulates the immune system to fight the tumor, so the body can recognize cancer cells and destroy them.
According to the hospital data, immunotherapy is the most effective for Hodgkin's lymphoma, melanoma, neck tumors, lungs, breast, kidney, and bladder treatment. Immunotherapy does not cause side effects compared with chemotherapy.
Neurosurgeons accept patients with spinal cord, brain, and peripheral nervous system disorders. To make the operations as safe and effective as possible, doctors use:
For operations on the brain and spinal cord, doctors perform microsurgery, an intervention enlarging and illuminating the operated area that allows minimizing the risk of bleeding.
The Istinye specialists perform organ transplants for adults and children. They carry out liver and kidney transplant operations along with complex interventions like simultaneous transplantation of several organs.
The Organ Transplant Department is headed by Professor Ayhan Dinсkan who performed more than 1,000 liver transplants and 5,000 kidney transplants in children and adults. The success rate of the donor organ acceptance is 91.7%, as Istinye Liv Hospital reports.
The Istinye urologists conduct surgical treatment of urolithiasis (stones), cysts, acute renal failure, prostate diseases and congenital malformations of the urinary system. Doctors accept adults and children for treatment.
