Facing cancer is overwhelming. And when your doctor tells you that you need a specialized treatment like HIPEC (Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy), questions like “Is it available in my country?”, “Can I afford it?”, “Are there better alternatives abroad?” naturally arises. Suppose you live in the USA, UK, Saudi Arabia, Africa, or any other country, and your doctor has advised you to undergo HIPEC for peritoneal cancers (ovarian, colorectal, stomach, appendix). In that case, you have a trusted option—Cross-Border Care. We help you get the same high-quality HIPEC treatment in India at much lower costs, under the care of top medical oncologists like Dr. Ankur Behl at Fortis Hospital, Delhi.
Here’s a complete step-by-step guide to plan your treatment journey in India with the help of Cross Border Care, the leading medical consultants in India
HIPEC in India: Let’s Know a Bit About It
HIPEC in India is performed in two stages:
- The cancer is first surgically removed.
- The heated chemo drugs are applied directly to the abdomen to kill the remaining cancer cells.
This type of chemotherapy is mostly suggested when traditional chemotherapy fails to treat peritoneal cancers.
How Can You Get HIPEC Treatment in India?
Step 1: Understand Why HIPEC Was Suggested
Your doctor may have recommended HIPEC if you are suffering from:
- Peritoneal carcinomatosis
- Ovarian cancer (spread to the abdominal lining)
- Appendix cancer
- Colorectal or gastric cancer (with abdominal spread)
- Pancreatic cancer
- Liver cancer
- Adrenal cancer
Step 2: Check the Cost of HIPEC in Your Country
Here’s a table showing the HIPEC treatment cost in India vs other countries
| Country | Average HIPEC Cost | Waiting Time | Hidden Costs |
| USA | $35,000 – $50,000 | 2–4 weeks | Hospital stay, surgeon fees extra |
| UK (Private | £25,000 – £40,000 | Up to 6 weeks | High consultation fees |
| Saudi Arabia | SAR 90,000 – SAR 150,000 | 2–3 weeks | Limited HIPEC experts |
