Polypectomy Cost in Gurgaon, India

The cost of a polypectomy in Gurgaon typically ranges from $620 to $6,000 USD (about ₹58,800 to ₹5.69 lakh), depending on the hospital, room category and type of procedure.

A typical estimate for a polypectomy in Gurgaon is around $2,000 (about ₹1.90 lakh). What you pay depends mainly on your own case. If your operation is planned, done by keyhole or a standard method, and you go home after a short stay, your bill is likely to be closer to $620 (about ₹58,800). It is likely to be nearer $6,000 (about ₹5.69 lakh) if you need open or robotic surgery, your condition is more complex, you stay longer or you choose a private room.

When comparing Gurgaon packages for a polypectomy, check whether each quote includes:

• Surgeon and anaesthetist fees
• Operating theatre or procedure room
• Laboratory tests on removed tissue
• Hospital stay and room category
• Medicines and consumables
• Follow-up visits before you fly home

A uterine polypectomy takes away polyps, small growths of the womb lining, usually through a hysteroscope passed through the cervix, with no cuts to the abdomen.

Polyps can cause bleeding between periods, heavy periods or bleeding after the menopause, and may interfere with a pregnancy implanting. Removing them also lets the tissue be checked for cancer, particularly after the menopause.

The NHS says that hysteroscopy passes a slim camera into the womb, normally takes 10 to 15 minutes and can be done in clinic with pain relief or under sedation or general anaesthetic; period-like pain may last a couple of days and spotting up to a week.

Avoid tampons, sex and strenuous exercise until the bleeding settles.

The NHS notes rare risks of infection or a small hole in the wall of the womb.

Flying home: there is no aviation figure for this procedure, so book after the surgeon's review and ask how to lower clot risk on a long flight.

A Gurgaon quote for a polypectomy is normally made up of these items:

• Pre-operative tests: blood work, imaging and an anaesthetic assessment.
• Theatre and anaesthesia charges: mostly set by time in the operating room.
• Consultant fees: which differ from one hospital to the next.
• Type of operation: open, keyhole or robotic where there is a choice.
• Number and size of polyps: and their position.
• Setting: clinic or operating theatre.
• Anaesthesia: local, sedation or general.
• Lab testing: of the taken out tissue.

Ask the Gurgaon hospital whether the quote includes the anaesthetist, the scan or biopsy results, medicines and the post-operative review.

Gynaecology services in Gurgaon are provided by multi-speciality and women's hospitals, with keyhole and hysteroscopic surgery widely available.

NABH, the hospital accreditation board of the Quality Council of India whose standards carry ISQua accreditation, sets the national benchmark for hospitals, and its online directory shows whether a Gurgaon hospital's accreditation is still current.

Gurgaon is part of Delhi NCR, where India's first hospital to gain Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation did so in 2005, and JCI publishes a searchable list of the organisations it currently accredits.

Gurgaon was officially renamed Gurugram by the Haryana government in 2016, so hospital letters, maps and taxi apps may use either name.
