Your Questions Answered

Why Do I Need Brain Tumor Surgery?

Brain tumor surgery is needed when a tumor causes symptoms like seizures, headaches, or neurological deficits, or poses a life-threatening risk. It aims to remove as much of the tumor as possible while preserving brain function. Your doctor will recommend it based on tumor type, size, and location.

How Do They Do It?

Pre-Surgical Assessment

MRI or CT scans map the tumor for precise surgical planning.

Anesthesia

General anesthesia keeps you unconscious and pain-free.

Surgical Procedure

A craniotomy opens the skull to remove the tumor, often with navigation tools.

Closing & Recovery

Skull is closed with plates; brain function is monitored.

Surgery lasts 4-8 hours, depending on tumor complexity. Your neurosurgeon will explain the specifics.

What Could Go Wrong?

Brain tumor surgery is intricate, with potential risks including:

Brain swelling or bleeding

Neurological deficits (e.g., speech, movement)

Infection or seizures

Stroke or blood clots

Major complications are rare (less than 5%) with skilled teams. SB Medical Travels ensures top-tier care to minimize risks.

How Do I Get Ready?

Preparation is vital for a successful surgery:

Before Surgery:

  • Fast for 8-12 hours prior to anesthesia

  • Adjust medications as advised (e.g., blood thinners)

  • Pack for a hospital stay; avoid hair products

  • Arrange support for post-surgery recovery

SB Medical Travels provides a tailored checklist and assists with every detail of your preparation.

How Long Until I'm Back to Normal?

Recovery Timeline:

1
Hospital Stay

5-10 days, depending on tumor removal and complications.

2
First 2 Weeks

Rest at home; avoid strenuous activity or driving.

3
6-12 Weeks

Gradual return to light tasks; monitor neurological recovery.

4
3-6 Months

Most resume normal life, depending on tumor impact.

Our team coordinates your recovery, including follow-ups and rehab for optimal healing.

Does It Hurt?

Pain is carefully managed during and after brain tumor surgery:

During Surgery

No pain; general anesthesia ensures unconsciousness.

Immediately After

Moderate head pain; managed with strong painkillers.

Recovery Period

Headaches lessen over weeks; mild discomfort may persist.

Long-Term

Minimal pain after healing; focus shifts to function.

Our partner hospitals prioritize pain management, and we’ll support your recovery process.
