How Much Does Prostatectomy Cost in Italy?

Prostatectomy in Italy typically costs from $14,000 to $24,000. The final price depends on the surgical technique used, the clinic's location, and the length of hospital stay. Patients save around 37% compared to the US, where this procedure costs $30,000 on average. Standard Italian healthcare packages generally include the surgical procedure, anesthesia, medical team fees, and several days of hospitalization.

  • Robotic da Vinci prostatectomy: $25,100 to $28,000 for advanced, minimally invasive robotic-assisted surgery.
  • Laparoscopic prostatectomy: $18,000 to $32,000 using small incisions and specialized cameras.
  • Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP): $3,600 to $6,800 for treating benign enlargement.
  • Regional variations: Packages in major hubs like Milan and Rome often include premium accommodation.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing specialized centers in Rome or Milan offers superior value for robotic surgery. Ospedale San Carlo di Nancy was recognized as a top clinic for Da Vinci procedures. It offers structured packages starting around $30,600 that include four nights of stay. For complex cases, San Raffaele in Milan provides access to three robotic systems. Experts like Francesco Montorsi have performed over 8,000 urological surgeries there.

"I declare with all responsibility that the San Rafael clinic in Milan is the best
The professionalism of the doctors, the newest equipment, the care of the clinic staff are among the best in Europe. The treatment and operations in Russia and Germany have been carried out, I declare with all responsibility that the San Rafael clinic in Milan is the best. After treating my father’s stomach cancer, I visited the neurologist and gastroenterologist and myself. Thank you so much to the coordinator, the doctors from the international department of the clinic. More in the world of such doctors. THANK YOU!

We received a remote consultation at the San Rafael Clinic, for us this format was not suitable, because the second opinion is for those who either confirm the diagnosis or ask for another alternative treatment, we were told that after the consultation, continue the same, although we were treated and there was no result, as a result, after a remote consultation, we were not assigned anything, plus all communication was extended for a couple of months, because the clinic’s response rate was very low. We could not get any concrete answer, so this consultation was useless for us.

"Just returned from there
Just returned from there. Everything was top notch, and doctors, and the organization of the stay. It took 2 days from the first call to the bookmarked to my arrival in Milan. The next morning, consult a doctor. All questions were solved almost instantly, the results of all analyzes and studies were ready the next day. And constantly in touch with the coordinator Catherine and care worker Alexander. In my trips to the clinic, I was accompanied by a super translator Yulya Sukhneva. Thanks to the clear and professional work of Julia, Kati and Alexander, my stay was very short, I saved money on the hotel. The hotel, by the way, was excellent, up to the clinic, 200 meters. Yes, and more, the prices for consultations and analyzes are quite comparable with those in Moscow. I spent much less money than I thought at first. Thank you all!
