The cost of a throat cancer operation in Spain typically ranges from $22,500 to $34,000. Prices can vary depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, the complexity of the tumor removal, and whether reconstructive surgery is needed. In the United States, the average price is $120,000 (per American Cancer Society). This means throat cancer surgery in Spain is about 76% less than in the U.S.
Spanish hospitals generally include preoperative diagnostics, surgery, anesthesia, hospital stay, postoperative care, and follow-up visits in their packages. In the U.S., the base price often covers only the surgeon and hospital fees, with separate charges for anesthesia, pathology, and follow-up care. Patients should confirm exactly what’s included at each clinic before making a decision.
