A pancreatic neoplasm is an abnormal growth in the pancreas. Some are entirely benign, some are precancerous, and some are malignant, and telling them apart, before deciding what to do, is most of the work.
At Lux Hospitals, pancreatic neoplasm surgery costs between ₹1,00,000 and ₹2,00,000, depending on what the tumour is, where it sits, and how much of the pancreas has to come out with it.
One band, spanning a range of operations. Removing a small tumour from the tail of the pancreas and resecting one at the head are very different undertakings, and which one your case needs is settled by imaging and staging before any figure is fixed.
₹1,00,000–₹2,00,000
estimated surgery cost
A benign cystic neoplasm, a precancerous lesion and an adenocarcinoma are three different problems. The first may only need watching; the last needs a major resection.
A tumour in the tail can be removed with the spleen relatively directly. One at the head involves the bile duct and duodenum and is among the largest operations in abdominal surgery.
Contrast CT, MRI, endoscopic ultrasound and tumour markers. Knowing exactly what you are dealing with before theatre is what prevents an operation that should never have been started.
A shared ward, a twin-sharing room or a private suite: the largest single swing in most estimates, and the one thing on this list you choose rather than are assigned.
A longer operation spends more theatre time and more of the anaesthetist’s, and a consultant with more years behind the procedure is charged at a higher rate.
Local, spinal or general. Which one your case needs is a clinical decision, not a preference, and it moves both the drug cost and how long you are monitored afterwards.
We are empanelled with most major insurers and file the pre-authorisation for you, so what is left to pay yourself is known before admission rather than at discharge.
Which of these apply to you is settled at the consultation. Until a surgeon has seen you and your reports, any figure (here or anywhere else) is a range rather than your bill.

Every figure above is an indicative range, not a quote. After your consultation you are given a written, fixed-cost estimate, and that is the number you pay, with no additions once treatment begins.
The figure quoted to you is what leaving the hospital costs, not what entering it does. Everything below is inside it.
Important: Anything outside this list is told to you before it is done, not billed afterwards. If your case needs something the estimate did not allow for, you are asked first.
Your final bill may change if you need additional tests, a procedure for another condition, a longer hospital stay, extra medicines or follow-up care beyond what your estimate includes.
Ask the billing team which charges are included and which may be added based on your treatment needs.
Yes. Most health insurance plans cover hospitalisation and surgical treatment, and we offer cashless claim support with the major insurers.
Coverage depends on your policy, the treatment approved and the insurer or TPA. Contact the Lux Hospitals insurance desk to check eligibility and understand any expected out-of-pocket cost.
Pancreatic surgery is unforgiving, and the most important decisions are made before anyone picks up a scalpel.
Hospital stay and recovery depend on the procedure, your condition and your individual health. Some procedures may be completed as day-care treatment; others may require admission.
Before discharge, your care team will explain medicines, care at home and any follow-up appointments. Your surgeon can give you a recovery plan after assessing your condition and treatment.
