About the clinic

Tetralogy of Fallot surgery at Liv Hospital Ulus in Istanbul, Turkey may cost around $22,200 for the initial shunt procedure. The JCI-accredited hospital specializes in pediatric cardiac surgery with a two-stage surgical approach to increase success rates. Dr. Ahmet Özkara leads the cardiac surgery team with specialized expertise in congenital heart defects.

Surgical Approach

The treatment involves two stages for better outcomes. Stage one includes either a Blalock-Taussig shunt or Pulmonary Banding procedure. Patients stay 7-10 days in hospital with 2-4 nights in ICU. The second stage comes 1-2 years later as full corrective surgery.

Package Includes

  • Shunt operation (subclavian-pulmonary artery)
  • ICU and regular ward stays
  • Echocardiography and pulmonary angiography
  • Airport transfer and interpreter services

Medical Team

Dr. Özkara works with Dr. Meki Bilici for evaluation. All patients receive detailed assessment before treatment begins. The 30,000 m² facility handles 50,000 international patients annually.

Important Considerations

This is high-risk surgery with life-threatening potential. Delays may increase surgical risks. The $20,000 Pulmonary Banding option includes 10-day hospital stay. Contact the hospital for specific case evaluation.

I would highly recommend bookimed to anyone needing a complex medical procedure

Our son was recommended to undergo a complex surgical procedure, which was not only risky but also extremely complicated. I couldn't be more satisfied with bookimed. From start to finish their representative Olha was professional, responsive and genuinely invested in helping me find the best possible care. Olha took the time to understand my medical needs and concerns and provide personalized recomendatios for hospitals and surgeons of different regions. The information they provided was thorough and accurate. The entire process was smooth and stressfree. All travel matters and documents were swiftly provided for travel procedures. i appreciate the extra effort to ensure I was comfortable every step of the way. They kept a check on my son even after the procedure regarding his well being. I would highly recommend bookimed to anyone needing a complex medical procedure .They have fully earned my trust and i feel grateful for their support during my challenging time.
the representative's swift and prompt response
