The cost of removal of colon cancer surgery in Germany typically ranges from $25,000 to $40,000. Pricing depends on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, the cancer stage, and whether the procedure is open or laparoscopic. In the United States, the average cost is $70,000 (per ACS). This means removal of colon cancer in Germany can be about 54% less than in the U.S.
German hospitals usually include pre-op diagnostics, surgery, anesthesia, hospital stay (5–10 days), pathology, and standard follow-up. In the U.S., the quoted price often covers only the surgeon’s fee, with anesthesia, hospital stay, pathology, and imaging billed separately. Always confirm the full list of included services with your chosen clinic.
