Skull bone tumor resection
Skull bone tumors are abnormal growths of cells in the skull bones, and they may be benign or malignant. These tumors require careful treatment to avoid serious complications.
Symptoms of Skull Bone Tumors:
Symptoms depend on the size and location of the tumor.
Common symptoms include:
Headache.
Lump in the head.
Double vision.
Movement disturbances.
Dizziness and imbalance.
Hearing loss or impairment.
Confusion.
Symptoms may vary if the tumor is pressing on certain nerve centers.
Endoscopic skull bone tumor resection:
The goal of surgery is to remove as much of the tumor as possible.
The location and size of the tumor are determined before surgery using CT or MRI.
The endoscope is inserted through the nasal cavity.
The endoscope camera is used to guide the surgical instruments.
The tumor is carefully removed, and a surgical navigator may be used to protect the surrounding tissue.
The surgical incision is closed with cosmetic sutures.
Endoscopic surgery is not suitable for all cases, especially large tumors or tumors close to sensitive areas.
Advantages of endoscopic skull bone tumor removal:
Small surgical incisions.
Less postoperative pain.
Shorter recovery period.
Speed of the operation.
Early discharge from the hospital.
Better protection of surrounding tissues.
The importance of choosing a specialist doctor:
Surgical removal of skull bone tumors requires high experience and skill.
A specialized neurosurgeon must be chosen to ensure the best results.
In general, endoscopic skull bone tumor removal is an effective and safe procedure in appropriate cases.
