Brain Tumor Surgery
Brain tumor surgery is performed to remove or reduce abnormal cell growth in or near the brain. These tumors can be benign or malignant and may impact brain function. There are three major types of brain tumor surgeries – Craniotomy, Keyhole / Microscopic Brain Tumor Surgery, Brain Tumor Surgery With Neuronavigation, Non-invasive Brain Tumor Treatment (CyberKnife).
Craniotomy (Open Brain Surgery)- This involves removing a part of the skull bone to expose the tumor and remove it. The skull bone is placed back after removal of the tumor.
Keyhole / Microscopic Brain Tumor Surgery- This is a minimally invasive brain tumor surgery procedure that involves creation of a few small holes to access the tumor and remove it.
Brain Tumor Surgery With Neuronavigation- This is a newer approach which involves the use of advanced neuronavigation machines that allows the surgeons to remove the tumor from hard to reach areas of the brain.
Non-invasive Brain Tumor Treatment (CyberKnife)- This is a advanced brain tumor treatment that involves the use of non-invasive radiosurgery machine called CyberKnife to shrink tumor with the help of radiation.
A brain tumor is often detected when symptoms appear or during a diagnostic exam, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT scan), or biopsy.
