Treatment
Minimally Invasive Surgery for a rare Endocrine Brain Tumor
An extraordinary medical achievement, a 27-year-old woman with Cushing’s disease, caused by a rare and critically located brain tumor, underwent a groundbreaking surgery that changed her life. The 5 mm tumor, located deep within the brain , was precisely identified using advanced MRI scans. and treated through a cutting-edge.
The neurosurgical team at Graphic Era Hospital by a minimally invasive procedure used an endoscopic endonasal approach—operating through the nose—to access and remove the tumor without leaving a single scar. With the help of Neuronavigation, a technology akin to a GPS for brain surgery, they pinpointed the tumor with remarkable accuracy. Post-surgery, her hormonal levels returned to normal, and the tumor was confirmed as an ACTH-secreting adenoma.
This innovative, scar-free technique is a game-changer for treating such challenging conditions. Combining precision, safety, and advanced technology, it offers patients faster recovery and a better quality of life. It’s a story of hope, healing, and the marvels of modern medicine.
This accomplishment is an example of the most cutting edge neurosurgical work in the region being done at Graphic era institute of Medical Sciences.And, underscores the institution’s unwavering commitment to delivering world class medical care.
