The cost of a lobectomy in Germany typically ranges from $25,000 to $40,000. Prices can vary depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, whether the procedure is open or minimally invasive (VATS), and the complexity of the patient’s case. In the United States, the average cost is $82,500 (per AHRQ). This means lobectomy surgery in Germany is about 61% less than in the U.S.
German clinics usually include the initial consultation, pre-operative blood tests, post-operative medication, follow-up consultations, English-speaking staff, personalized treatment plans, post-op care instructions, meals during clinic visits, and 24/7 patient support. In the U.S., the listed price often covers only the hospital and surgeon fees, with anesthesia, medications, and follow-up billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included in your package at each clinic.
