How Much Does Removal of colon cancer Cost in Turkey?

The cost of removal of colon cancer in Turkey typically ranges from $11,200 to $16,000. Prices vary depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, surgical approach (open or laparoscopic), and the complexity of the case. In the United States, the average price is $70,000 (per ACS). This means colon cancer removal surgery in Turkey is about 81% less than in the U.S.

In 2020, the Republic of Turkey has visa-free agreements with 89 states. Some foreigners are exempted from obtaining entry visas, others are required to receive an electronic visa (e-Visa), and still others must apply for a visa at Turkish missions abroad.
