How Much Does Thyroidectomy Cost in Italy?

Thyroidectomy in Italy typically costs from $5,000 to $9,000. The final price depends on the surgical technique, the extent of hospital stay, and the city. In the US, patients spend $13,000 on average for this procedure. Italy offers savings of approximately 46%. Common private inclusions cover the surgery, anesthesia, and a standard two-day hospitalization.

  • Subtotal thyroidectomy: $7,500 to $13,500 for partial removal of the gland.
  • Thyroid resection: $8,000 to $13,000 for removing specific diseased tissue.
  • Complex treatment of thyroid cancer: $14,500 to $28,500 which may include lymphadenectomy.
  • Technique variation: Robotic-assisted surgeries using the Da Vinci system typically add 20-30% to the cost.
  • Location factor: Private clinics in Milan and Rome serve as the primary medical hubs.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing specialized centers in Rome can optimize costs without compromising on high-tech access. Ospedale San Carlo di Nancy is a recognized leader in Da Vinci robotic surgery. While prices there start around $10,500, patients access a facility performing 14,000 hospitalizations annually. This high volume often correlates with better surgical outcomes in complex endocrine procedures.
