The cost of removal of liver cancer in Germany typically ranges from $30,000 to $60,000. Prices vary depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, tumor size and location, and whether additional treatments like ablation or lymph node removal are needed. In the United States, the average cost is $230,000 (according to the American Cancer Society). This means liver cancer removal in Germany can be about 80% less than in the U.S.
German hospitals usually include pre-op tests, surgery, anesthesia, hospitalization (5–14 days), pathology, and standard follow-up care. In the U.S., the listed price often covers only the surgeon and hospital, with separate bills for anesthesia, pathology, and post-op care. Always confirm exactly what your package covers at each hospital.
