Brain
Our brain is one of the most important parts that enable us to live a quality life. Any type of disease or disorder related to the brain can result in the disruption of the overall body’s functioning. Various conditions related to the brain are diagnosed, managed, and treated here.
Global Med Trips is linked with some of the top neurology hospitals in Pune. Advanced infrastructures and technologies, experienced doctors/surgeons, and other essential and complex medical services are provided to ensure complete care of the patients.
Some Treatments and Conditions We Treat at Global Med Trips are:
Brain Tumors
Brain tumors can be an extreme threat to life, if not treated on time. The treatment for the brain tumor is determined depending on the type, size, and exact location of the tumor in the brain. Some of the treatments that are commonly advised for treating brain tumors are radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and surgeries.
In some cases, symptoms such as experiencing new patterns of headaches or severe headaches that increase over time, loss of balance, seizures, blurred vision, etc can be noticed. However, in some cases, there may not be any symptoms at all. Thereby, it is generally advised to people to keep proper track of their health through checkups at least once a year.
Brain Abscess
Brain abscess is also known as Cerebral Abscess, which is a puss-filled inflammation in the brain. It occurs when there is a collection of infected material in the brain. It can be treated with medications or surgery, depending on the requirement of the condition.
The formation of brain abscess takes place when bacteria, parasites, dead fungi, and other infected materials enter the brain through the bloodstream, either after severe brain surgery or from other remote parts of the body such as the lungs, kidneys, heart, etc.
Cerebrovascular Diseases
Cerebrovascular diseases are medical conditions that can affect the blood vessels and circulation in the brain. Treatment of this condition can include medications, surgery, or lifestyle changes depending on the condition of the patient. Treating cerebrovascular diseases on time can help in preventing damage and deformities caused to arteries, which are necessary for supplying oxygen and nutrients to the brain.
Deep Brain Stimulation
Deep Brain Stimulation is a procedure used for treating certain neurological conditions such as Tourette’s syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), Major Depression, Chronic Pain, Dystonia, etc. It involves the implantation of a neurostimulator in the brain that delivers electrical impulses through the implanted electrodes to the targeted areas of the brain.
Skull Base Surgery
Skull base surgery is a minimally-invasive and highly-specialized operation used to diagnose, evaluate and treat benign or malignant growths found at the base of the skull, as well as in the upper part of the vertebral column and the underside of the brain. This type of surgery is an informative approach and can be used to treat such conditions effectively.
Encephalopathy
Encephalopathy is a term used to describe a variety of brain diseases that affect the structure or function of the brain. Treatment of these conditions can vary greatly depending on the type and severity of the brain disease. These treatments may include nutritional supplements, dietary adjustments, medications, organ replacement surgery, and in some cases, dialysis.
