    Brain Surgery

Meningioma surgery in Faridabad, Haryana is an advanced neurosurgical procedure performed to remove tumors that develop in the meninges (the protective layers surrounding the brain and spinal cord). Dr. Bhoopendra Foujdar, a leading brain and spine surgeon in Faridabad, specializes in the safe and precise removal of meningiomas using modern microsurgical and minimally invasive techniques.

Most meningiomas are benign (non-cancerous), but due to their location, they can press on critical brain structures, making timely diagnosis and treatment extremely important for preventing complications.


What is Meningioma Surgery?

Meningioma surgery is a procedure aimed at removing tumors that arise from the meninges rather than the brain tissue itself.

Goals of Surgery:

  • Complete removal of the tumor

  • Relief from pressure on the brain

  • Prevention of tumor growth or recurrence

  • Improvement in neurological symptoms

Depending on the size and location, surgery may be complete or partial (followed by additional treatment).


Why Does It Happen?

Meningiomas occur when cells in the meninges begin to grow abnormally and form a tumor. These tumors usually grow slowly but can become problematic as they increase in size.


Major Causes of Meningioma

While the exact cause is often unknown, possible risk factors include:

  • Genetic mutations

  • Previous radiation exposure

  • Hormonal factors (more common in women)

  • Family history

  • Age-related cellular changes


Symptoms

Symptoms depend on tumor size and location in the brain.

Common Symptoms Include:

  • Persistent headaches

  • Seizures

  • Vision problems

  • Hearing loss

  • Weakness in limbs

  • Memory issues

  • Difficulty in speech or coordination

  • Personality changes

In many cases, symptoms develop slowly and may be ignored initially.


How is it Treated?

Primary Treatment:

  • Meningioma surgery to remove the tumor

Additional Treatment Options:

  • Observation for small, non-growing tumors

  • Radiation therapy (if tumor cannot be fully removed)

  • Regular MRI monitoring

Dr. Bhoopendra Foujdar performs precision-based microsurgery to safely remove the tumor while protecting surrounding brain structures.

Surgical Approach Includes:

  • Microsurgical tumor removal

  • Minimally invasive techniques (where possible)

  • Advanced imaging guidance for accuracy

Early treatment ensures better recovery and reduces complications.


FAQs

1. Is meningioma cancerous?

Most meningiomas are benign (non-cancerous), but they still require treatment due to pressure on the brain.

2. Is surgery necessary for all meningiomas?

Not always. Small, slow-growing tumors may be monitored without surgery.

3. What is the success rate of meningioma surgery?

Success rates are very high, especially when performed by experienced neurosurgeons.

4. Can meningioma come back after surgery?

Some tumors may recur, so regular follow-up is important.

5. How long does recovery take?

Most patients recover within a few weeks, depending on the complexity of the surgery.
