The cost of lung cancer surgery in Mexico typically ranges from $30,000 to $45,000. Prices can vary depending on the hospital, surgeon’s experience, the type of surgery (lobectomy, pneumonectomy, or wedge resection), and complexity of the case. In the United States, the average cost is $77,500 (according to the American Cancer Society). This means lung cancer surgery in Mexico is about 52% less than in the U.S.
Mexican hospitals usually include the initial consultation, pre-op blood tests, post-op medication, follow-up visits, and personalized care plans in the price. English-speaking staff, post-op care instructions, meals during clinic visits, and 24/7 patient support are also standard. In the U.S., the base price often covers only the surgeon’s fee, with hospital stays, anesthesia, and aftercare billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included at each clinic.
