How Much Does Transurethral resection of the bladder Cost in Turkey?

Transurethral resection of the bladder in Turkey typically costs from $5,300 to $9,400. The final price depends on the tumor size, the number of growths, and the hospital's international accreditation level. Patients save approximately 43% compared to the US, where the average cost is $13,000. Standard packages in Istanbul often include preoperative tests, surgical fees, and airport transfers.

  • Tumor size: Large tumors exceeding 3 cm typically cost about 15-20% more than smaller growths.
  • Hospital tier: JCI-accredited facilities in Istanbul often charge a premium for advanced surgical coordination.
  • Package inclusions: Some centers bundle 4-star hotel stays and 24-hour nursing care into the price.
  • Pathology services: Biopsy analysis is vital for cancer staging and may be priced separately.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing a specialized clinic like Men's Health Clinics can offer significant value. Their packages start around $5,500 and include a 5-day stay in a 4-star hotel. In contrast, premium centers like Memorial Şişli Hospital focus on complex cases with 90% success rates. For tumors larger than 3 cm, expect to pay approximately $12,500 at top-tier JCI hospitals. Always verify if the pathology report and follow-up consultations are included in your initial quote.

The care I received on-site was excellent
The most important thing for future patients to know is to be prepared for new realities. I came ready for a laser enucleation operation for my medium-sized prostate, but I ended up undergoing a steam ablation procedure instead after my consultation. My surgeon was very good. He clearly explained the urination improvement timeline, which was quite reassuring as I begin my recovery. Although there has been little contact from the clinic since I left, the care I received on-site was excellent. My main advice is to go in with an open mind, as your final treatment plan might be different from what you initially expected.

The professor’s jokes helped me feel relaxed before the procedure. That supportive feeling was consistent throughout. I had a great experience from start to finish; the staff were polite, professional, and very helpful. A special mention has to go to Ibrohim, who was incredibly helpful throughout my stay, translating everything and regularly checking in after the procedure. The cryoablation addressed multiple nerve branches, and I'm healing with a clean, minimal scar. If like me you have tried all other options, then give it a go, as it’s the safer option than the dorsal neurectomy. I felt genuinely well looked after.

I warmly recommend professor to all the patients who need a really skilled doctor who is always willing to do his best for helping! He has in addition, very kind and generous personality! My sincere thanks goes further to coordinator Alisher and translator Gulnaz. Alisher is a perfect example of the right person on the right place. He possess executive management skills and it is a pleasure to communicate with him. He is expert to organise, coordinate and give a quick feedback. He is always smiling and polite. Alisher is always trying to solve all the problems on a best way and is a really good listener and communicator. Last but not least I want to express my sincere gratitude to translator Gulnaz! Gulnaz is extremely talented, professional, kind and supportive person ! She is the person you will be happy to meet when you are far from home and need help to understand a different language. She is like a little sunshine on a rainy day, always kind and smiling and always ready to make you feel better! The perfect combination of highly skilled people makes really this hospital special.

There was nothing that could have been better
My main concern was the complexity of my case, which required addressing both Peyronie's disease and implanting a prosthesis. The surgeon was excellent. It was a very difficult job, but the two-hour surgery was successful because we followed his recommendations. I'm in early recovery, and while it is highly painful, that was to be expected. The support system was also solid. Communication with my coordinator and interpreter, Ibrohim, was excellent. He was very friendly and reassuring throughout the process, which made a significant difference. There was nothing that could have been better.

When I considered what could be improved, honestly, nothing came to mind
My coordinator has been incredible through all stages of this process. She checked in daily, sometimes multiple times a day, ensuring every aspect of my treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia was managed well, which made the entire situation so much easier to navigate. I'm still in early recovery. The surgeon, staff, and the clinic itself were all excellent. When I considered what could be improved, honestly, nothing came to mind. The consistent communication and management of the process were that thorough. Everything was handled for me from start to finish with great care.

Everything was excellent from start to finish
Everything was excellent from start to finish. We definitely recommend them to anyone looking for treatment in Istanbul. I'm still in early recovery from my HoLEP procedure, but I am feeling much better than I expected to at this stage. It’s a real relief. For my condition, which involved a medium-sized prostate, I was pleased that the catheter was only needed for two days post-op. What also gave us peace of mind was that the final bill was exactly as quoted, with no additional expenses to worry about. The entire process was very straightforward and well-managed.

I’m glad I chose this team for my care and would absolutely do so again
My biggest worry was the complexity of the procedure itself, especially since it turned out I needed a Vasoepididymostomy. However, the surgeon was very clear and reassuring from the first consultation. That put me at ease. The clinic staff were consistently supportive, and the entire process felt organized and professional. Recovery is a journey, and while there's still some healing to do, I feel like I was in very capable hands. Everything went smoothly. I’m glad I chose this team for my care and would absolutely do so again.

The result is already better than expected
What worried me most was how the final length would turn out, but the result is already better than expected. The team was faultless. My incision for the 3-piece Rigicon implant is healing cleanly, though the most difficult part of recovery has been just trying to sit comfortably. The clinic facility itself is why I gave a lower rating; it’s functional but feels dated. This did not detract from the quality of the medical attention, however. Based on the care from the staff and the surgeon, I would direct others here.
The whole experience overall was great. Dr Bugra Cetin made himself available throughout my time in Istanbul, when he wasn't in surgery, that made my trip easy. The staff at Bookimed addressed all my concerns day and night, with taxi, clinic and still with my recovery while back home. I got with my local Urologist for them to have a look at my surgical area and they were happy with the results so far and said everything looks perfect! Thanks Dr. Cetin and Team!
None, for Bookimed. Anytime I did have any issue with hotel and taxi service, the staff was spot on.

Alina Popova works at the highest level — communication is extremely polite and professional
Alina Popova works at the highest level — communication is extremely polite and professional. She managed to solve my problem in an incredibly short timeframe. Thanks to her, I will recommend your service and Alina personally. Her client-oriented approach and ability to empathize with the patient’s situation allow me to declare that, through her dedication, she helps people not only with their direct requests but also as a bonus — on a moral and emotional level.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Alina Popova is an outstanding specialist who provided exceptional support both on a moral and professional level. She found the right clinic as quickly as possible, explained everything clearly, and was able to offer support during a difficult time. Human qualities — 100 out of 100, professional knowledge and skills — 200 out of 100. I am extremely satisfied working with Alina.
The amount changed — I ended up paying significantly more than expected, even though I asked ten times whether the price would be fixed. I was very unhappy about this.

The doctor was great, really explained everything as much as he could and helped loads
For anyone considering this procedure, my experience was a mixed bag, but the medical care itself was solid. My surgeon performed a vasovasostomy and was very honest about success chances, especially given my original vasectomy was 5–10 years ago. The doctor was great, really explained everything as much as he could and helped loads. Staff were good and very attentive also. I’m feeling about as expected in my recovery and the clinic gave me a clear aftercare guide. The main issue was the catering. Honestly, the food, it was boring or disgusting not good. There was no choice of meals or drinks for me or my partner. It's my one big piece of advice for others: bring plenty of your own food and drink for your stay.

My coordinator stayed in touch and was supportive through the process. However, the doctor inspired confidence initially but his performance was very poor. During the consultation, he minimized all the risks and made everything seem very simple, he was like a salesman. In the surgery room he realized that he couldn’t do the surgery he planned for me, and he did to me a totally different surgery just for the sake of money. Instead of solving my problem he added more horrible problems to my life. Bedsides the fact that I payed for on surgery and received another one, what he did was harmful to my body with a very negative impact on my life and my mental health. I feel worse. On top of this, I had to pay for some transfers due to car unavailability. My advice is to be very careful in discussions with the doctor; ask as many questions as possible and trust your gut feeling when making a big decision.

FAQ about Transurethral resection of the bladder in Turkey

These FAQs come from real patients seeking medical assistance through Bookimed. Answers are given by experienced medical coordinators and trusted clinic representatives.

When is the best time to travel to Turkey?

The main advantage of Turkish resorts is the long beach season. On the Mediterranean coast, it starts in April and lasts until November. In the resorts of the Aegean Sea — from May to October. The most comfortable time for swimming is from mid-June to the end of October. A large influx of tourists is in July-August, when the air temperature is +38°C, and the water warms up to +27°C.

What is the level of medicine in Turkey?

Healthcare is the key development sector of the Turkish government. The Turkish authorities are convinced that care for the citizens' health should be an absolute priority of state policy and spend about 77 billion liras for healthcare annually.

As a result, 28,000 medical facilities provide excellent medical care in the country. About 50 centers have certificate of JCI (Joint Commission International), the international improver of healthcare quality and safety across the globe. The index of certificates obtained is the largest. To compare, Israel has 20 JCI-accredited facilities, and Germany — only 10 clinics of this type.

What should you know about Turkey before the trip?

Currencylira (you also can pay for services in dollars and euros)
Best period for the tripMay-October
LanguageTurkish (most of medical staff speaks English fluently)
Visais not required for a trip of at least 30 days per visit

Do I need a visa?

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.

What states need a visa for treatment in Turkey and what countries can cross the border free and easy read here.

What documents are required to apply for a visa to Turkey for treatment?

Visas for travel to Turkey require a number of documents. The necessary papers can be submitted 90 days before the planned departure. Lists of documents includes:

  • ID card
  • confirmation of online registration and filling out the questionnaire
  • certificate of income and availability of funds ($50 per day per person)
  • insurance policy for a stay in Turkey (original and copy)
  • 2 photos (5x6)
  • visa receipt
  • booking of flight and hotel
  • medical opinion about the need for treatment.

What hotel services are provided here?

In Turkey, hotels of different price ranges and service levels are presented. The level of Turkish hotels is comparable to hotels in Tunisia, Morocco or Egypt. Most tourists choose 4 and 5 star hotels with all-inclusive meals. Such hotels have everything for a comfortable stay: varied food, a large well-groomed territory, animation for children and adults. Some hotels have their own water park, which guests can use for free. Budget travelers can afford to book an economical 3-star hotel with half board or no meals at all.
