Flexible ureterorenoscopy (URS) in Istanbul typically costs from $3,100 to $5,800. The final price depends on stone size, density, and the need for laser lithotripsy. Patients save around 78% compared to the US, where this procedure costs $13,500 on average. Most Istanbul clinics provide the procedure with a surgeon fee, anesthesia, and one night of hospitalization included.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Istanbul serves as Turkey's primary urological hub, concentrating the highest volume of JCI-accredited facilities like Memorial Bahçelievler and Anadolu Medical Center. Patients find significant value in the high surgical volume here. For example, surgeons like Basri Cakiroglu at Hisar Hospital have performed over 900 procedures. This experience often translates into shorter operative times and more efficient stone clearance, which remains a key advantage over regional clinics.
