Operation steps-costs and conditions
Kidney transplant packages in Türkiye generally cost more than those in Iran due to the country's more advanced medical facilities and infrastructure.
Turkish hospitals specializing in kidney transplants adhere to international standards, ensuring high-quality care.

Timeline and Costs
The estimated timeline for a kidney transplant in Türkiye is 30-40 days, slightly longer than in Iran due to the committee review.
