A young collegiate girl Miss Russel was suffering from severe headache problem. She was in college when she fainted for the first time. Her mother was at work, she called her daughter many times however the calls went unanswered. The mother got worried and called Russel’s friend to find out what was wrong with her. Russel was also unaware of it and never thought that this may be a tumor. Her mother was very much scared with the situation and thought that her daughter will never be cured. She had hundreds of questions in her mind, whether her daughter can be cured? Will she be fine? Is there any treatment for this? Will she walk on her feet again or no? she thought that this is the end for her daughter. The answers for all her questions were at Max Hospital, Saket.

Mother and daughter planned to come to India for the treatment. They consulted Dr. Arun Saroha for the treatment of Russel. Dr Arun Saroha is specialized in Neurosurgery, Neurosciences, he met and examined Russel she was bedridden, she was unable to move her hands and also was not able to move half of her body. She was on trolley when she came to the hospital and was dependent on a person for her personal requirements; she had difficulty in doing her activities also was not able to speak. The tumor was large in size and occupied 70% of the brain stem. Brain stem is a structure located beneath the brain where the brain nerves are compressed and condensed, and then they go down to the body and is very important area of the body, even a single decimal of damage to this area can make a person paralytic for lifetime.

After the investigations and evaluations, the surgery was done to remove the tumor surgeons dissected the area and were able to remove the tumor easily. Hence the tumor was removed completely with this surgery. The results were just amazing as the patient started recovering within 2 days of the surgery, she was able to speak walk and communicate. Now she was no more bedridden. Mother of the patient was happy and impressed with the results of the treatment.
