The cost of lung cancer surgery in Spain typically ranges from $40,000 to $70,000. Prices can vary depending on the type of surgery (lobectomy, pneumonectomy, or wedge resection), the hospital, and the surgeon’s experience. In the United States, the average cost is $77,500 (per ACS). This means lung cancer surgery in Spain is about 29% less than in the U.S.
Spanish hospitals usually include pre-op tests, surgery, anesthesia, hospital stay, and post-op care in the price. In the U.S., costs for anesthesia, hospital stay, and follow-ups are often billed separately from the surgeon’s fee. Always confirm what’s included with your chosen clinic.
