Understanding Brain Tumours
A brain tumour is an abnormal growth of cells in or around the brain. These tumours can be:
tumour is an abnormal growth of cells in or around the brain. These tumours can be:
- Primary Brain Tumours – originating in the brain itself
- Secondary (Metastatic) Brain Tumours – spreading from cancers in other organs like the lung or breast
Tumours can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). While benign tumours grow slowly and may not spread, they can still cause significant symptoms by pressing on nearby brain tissue.
Common Types of Brain Tumours We Treat
- Gliomas (including astrocytomas, glioblastomas)
- Meningiomas
- Pituitary Adenomas
- Acoustic Neuromas (Vestibular Schwannomas)
- Craniopharyngiomas
- Medulloblastomas (in children)
- Metastatic brain tumours from other cancers
- Pineal and brainstem tumours
- Colloid cysts and other rare tumours
Symptoms That May Indicate a Brain Tumour
Brain tumour symptoms depend on the tumour’s size, location, and rate of growth. Common warning signs include:
- Persistent or worsening headaches, especially in the morning
- Seizures or convulsions
- Blurred vision or double vision
- Balance issues or difficulty walking
- Speech difficulties
- Memory loss or confusion
- Weakness or numbness in parts of the body
- Personality or behavioural changes
If any of these symptoms appear, immediate neurological evaluation is crucial with our Brain Tumour Surgery in Secunderabad
Advanced Diagnostics for Brain Tumour Surgery in Secunderabad
We use the latest imaging and diagnostic tools to accurately locate and characterize brain tumours:
- MRI Brain (Contrast/Functional)
- CT Scan
- MR Spectroscopy
- PET-CT Brain (for metabolic activity)
- Angiography (for vascular tumours)
- Biopsy (Stereotactic/Needle) for tissue diagnosis
Surgical Treatment Options for Brain Tumours
1. Craniotomy (Open Brain Surgery)
A standard approach where a section of the skull is temporarily removed to access and remove the tumour. It is used for most types of deep or large brain tumours.
2. Minimally Invasive / Keyhole Neurosurgery
Performed through small openings using an endoscope and microscopic tools. Suitable for select tumours and offers faster recovery.
3. Stereotactic Neurosurgery
Computer-guided precision surgery to target tumours deep inside the brain with high accuracy. Often used for biopsy or small lesion removal.
4. Endoscopic Endonasal Surgery
Used to access tumours located at the base of the skull (like pituitary tumours) through the nose—no visible incision.
5. Awake Brain Surgery (Intraoperative Mapping)
Performed while the patient is awake (under local anaesthesia) to monitor brain function during tumour removal—especially important when tumours are near speech or motor areas.

At RR Hospitals, our neurosurgical operating theatres are equipped with:
- Neuro-navigation systems for 3D real-time tumour mapping
- Intraoperative MRI & CT to confirm complete tumour removal
- Neuronavigation-guided biopsy tools
- High-resolution operating microscopes

- 24×7 neurological observation
- Pain and infection control
- Anti-seizure medication support
- Early mobilization and nutritional guidance

- Neuropsychology services to support memory, cognition, and emotional wellbeing
Every patient receives an individualized rehabilitation plan to ensure the best possible return to everyday life.
Comprehensive Cancer Support (for Malignant Tumours)
For patients diagnosed with malignant or high-grade tumours, surgery is often followed by:
- Radiation therapy (IMRT, SRS, SRT)
- Chemotherapy (temozolomide and others)
- Targeted and immunotherapy options, when appropriate
- Oncology counselling and palliative care
Our neuro-oncology board reviews complex cases and creates evidence-based, holistic treatment plans.
