Early diagnosis is the key to curing many of these tumours. The diagnosis requires the capacity to look at the tumour with special telescopes that allow experts to see into the nose with high-definition cameras. At Medanta, the diagnostic tests include:
The main types of skull base surgery are:
Open surgery: Cuts are made in the skin or the membranes of the nose or throat to expose the bone of the skull base. The affected bone is removed to expose the tumour and to locate the importance of nerves.
Minimally invasive endoscopic surgery: This approach may:
Lessen damage
Save time in hospital and lessen recovery time
Reduce complications
Image Guided Surgery : CT or MRI scans are taken before surgery. They help the surgeon to identify the right location of the tumour in the operating room
It provides surgeons with precise images of the tumour and helps increase accuracy of the surgeon and gives way to complete removal of skull base tumour.
In addition to these, Chemotherapy or radiation therapy may be required depending on the tumour type and size.
You should consult a doctor immediately as you begin to experience headaches, blurred vision, loss of hearing or restlessness. You will get the right kind of treatment for your disease and achieve perfect health from the tumour
