The cost of stereotaxic surgeries in Germany typically ranges from $15,000 to $25,000. Prices can vary depending on the procedure type (biopsy, deep brain stimulation, tumor ablation), the clinic, and the surgeon’s expertise. In the United States, the average cost is $70,000 (per American Association of Neurological Surgeons). Stereotaxic surgeries in Germany are about 71% less expensive than in the U.S.
German hospitals usually include pre-op diagnostics (MRI/CT scans), general or local anesthesia, the surgery itself, use of stereotactic frames or navigation systems, hospital stay, and follow-up visits. In the U.S., costs often cover only the surgery, with imaging, anesthesia, and hospital fees billed separately. Always confirm which services are included in your treatment plan.
