Paras Health Successfully Treats Rare Tumor with Precise Microsurgical Technique
Udaipur: Paras Health, Udaipur, has given a new lease of life to a 16-year-old boy suffering from a rare and life-threatening brain condition. The boy had been experiencing constant headaches, fainting, and seizures for two months. After several advanced tests, he was diagnosed with a colloid cyst, a rare, non-cancerous brain tumor. This condition affects only three out of every one million people worldwide. The tumor was located in the brain's ventricles, which are cavities filled with fluid that circulate cerebrospinal fluid. The cyst was obstructing blood flow and fluid circulation, putting the boy at risk of sudden falls or even death.
The severity of the situation increased when it was discovered that the boy had a congenital heart defect—a hole in his heart from birth—further complicating his condition. Immediate treatment was crucial to save his life. Senior Consultant Neurosurgeon Dr. Ajit Singh took charge of the surgery, employing advanced minimally invasive techniques. Using advanced microscopy and endoscopy, Dr. Singh made a small incision in the skull and carefully navigated through critical brain structures to reach the tumor. The tumor was located near important areas controlling memory and movement, making the surgery particularly risky, with potential complications like memory loss and paralysis.
Dr. Singh said, “Operating in such a delicate area was challenging, but with the help of advanced microsurgical tools, we were able to safely remove the entire tumor without damaging surrounding brain structures.” The procedure at Paras Health was successful, and the patient showed significant improvement. Just two days after the surgery, the boy was discharged, and his condition is now stable.
Colloid cysts are rare, benign brain tumors that typically develop in the third ventricle of the brain. While non-cancerous, these cysts can block the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, leading to life-threatening issues like increased brain pressure. Symptoms often include severe headaches, fainting, seizures, and in some cases, if left untreated, sudden death. This case showcases the advances in modern neurosurgery, particularly the progress made in minimally invasive techniques. Such advancements ensure patient safety and enable faster recovery. Paras Health, Udaipur, is setting new standards in treating complex neurosurgical cases, offering hope to patients and their families.
