  • Neurological dysfunction

Diagnosis & Evaluation

  • MRI scan
  • CT scan
  • Neurological evaluation
  • Tissue biopsy

Risks

  • Infection
  • Bleeding
  • Seizures
  • Neurological changes
  • Swelling
  • Cerebrospinal fluid leaks

  • ⚠ Difficulty with balance or coordination
  • ⚠ Vision, speech, or hearing changes
  • ⚠ Nausea or morning vomiting

How It Is Done

  1. 1Pre-operative assessment including MRI/CT scans and neurological evaluation
  2. 2Administration of general anesthesia
  3. 3Craniotomy (removal of a section of the skull)
  4. 4Tumor removal using microscopes and specialized tools
  5. 5Closure of skull and incision with post-operative monitoring

Recovery

  • 💊 Hospital stay for several days to one week
  • 💊 Follow-up imaging (MRI/CT) to assess results
  • 💊 Rehabilitation therapy (physical, speech, occupational) may be required

Additional Information

  • ℹ Advanced neurosurgery uses robotic-assisted systems, AI-guided imaging, high-powered microscopes, and stereotactic navigation (e.g., ROSA robots) to improve precision and safety.
