Patients save around 82% compared to the US, where this procedure costs $53,500 on average. Standard packages in Istanbul usually include the surgical procedure, preoperative tests, specialist consultations, and hospital stay.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Istanbul is Turkey's primary hub for advanced thoracic surgery, concentrating the highest volume of JCI-accredited facilities nationally. Many clinics, such as Anadolu Medical Center, maintain official affiliations with US institutions like Johns Hopkins Hospital to transfer clinical protocols. This collaboration provides access to Western-standard multidisciplinary tumor boards without the high price tag associated with American or Western European healthcare systems.
