Advanced Brain Tumor Surgery at Livasa Amritsar - Cutting-Edge Techniques

Brain tumors are complex medical conditions that require precise and advanced treatment techniques. At Livasa Hospitals, especially our Amritsar center, we focus extensively on offering cutting-edge surgical solutions for brain tumors. With the rapid advancements in neurology, our goal is to provide effective and safe treatment options for patients in Punjab and beyond.

Understanding Brain Tumors

A brain tumor is a collection of abnormal cells growing in or around the brain. Tumors can affect brain function and may cause life-threatening complications. They are categorized as either benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Benign tumors, while not aggressive, can still disrupt brain activity and require medical attention. Malignant tumors are known for their aggressive nature and ability to spread to other parts of the brain and spine.

Common Causes: The exact cause of brain tumors is not fully understood. However, several factors such as genetics, exposure to ionizing radiation, and family history may contribute to their development.

Symptoms: Symptoms can vary depending on the size, location, and type of tumor. Common signs include persistent headaches, unexplained nausea or vomiting, blurred vision, and changes in cognitive abilities.
