Mr Rajesh Verma, a 48-year-old patient, was diagnosed with a rare skull base tumour. Concerned about the risks involved, he consulted several reputed hospitals. Most specialists were reluctant to perform the surgery due to its complexity and the proximity to critical facial nerves, where any damage could have led to facial paralysis and loss of function.

A family friend recommended Artemis Hospitals, Gurugram, renowned for handling complex neurosurgical cases. Upon arrival, Mr Verma was welcomed warmly and underwent a comprehensive assessment by the multidisciplinary neurological team. Using advanced imaging and meticulous preoperative planning, the neurosurgeons mapped the tumour’s exact location and carefully devised a strategy to remove it while protecting the facial nerves.

The team performed the delicate procedure with precision, successfully removing the tumour while preserving the facial nerves. Postoperative recovery was closely monitored, and Mr Verma experienced no facial weakness or nerve damage, reflecting the skill and expertise of the neurosurgical team.

This successful surgery underscores Artemis Hospital’s capability in handling complex neurosurgical conditions. By combining advanced technology, precise planning, and a patient-focused approach, the hospital ensures safe outcomes even in high-risk cases, reinforcing its reputation as a leading centre for neurosurgery in India.
