How much does brain tumor treatment cost in Istanbul?

Brain tumors are growths of abnormal cells in the tissues of the brain, and the U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) notes they can be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous), and either primary (starting in the brain) or metastatic (spreading from cancer elsewhere). NCI lists treatment options that may include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, chosen by tumor type, grade, and location. Istanbul hospitals offer these modalities, but there is no single price: cost is driven by the specific procedure — craniotomy versus a stereotactic radiosurgery course such as Gamma Knife — plus tumor grade, imaging, and length of stay. Rather than quote one number, OncologyIstanbul publishes an itemized, dated price index and returns a case-specific figure through a free 72-hour cancer case review; a partner hospital's tumor board provides the clinical plan, and you pay the hospital directly. This is general information, not medical advice.
