The cost of removal of a spinal cord tumor in Poland typically ranges from $13,000 to $25,000. Prices can vary depending on the complexity of the tumor, surgeon experience, hospital reputation, and whether advanced neuromonitoring or minimally invasive techniques are used. In the United States, the average cost is $225,000 (per AANS). This means removal of a spinal cord tumor in Poland is about 92% less than in the U.S.
Polish hospitals usually include pre-op imaging (MRI/CT), surgery with general anesthesia, intraoperative neuromonitoring, hospital stay (often 5–10 days), medications, and follow-up visits. In the U.S., hospital and surgeon fees are often billed separately, with anesthesia, imaging, and post-op care as extra charges. Always confirm exactly what’s included in your package with the clinic.
