  FAQs:

Q:Can surgery help in a head injury?

If the C.T. Scan shows a EDH (Extradural Hematoma) or SDH (Subdural hematoma) or a large intracranial bleed. Immediate surgery to remove the clot and reduce the swelling (decompression) can save a life.

Q:What are the symptoms of brain tumor?

    • Intense, prolonged or continuous headache over days or months.
    • Vomiting, squinting of eyes asymmetry of face.
    • Paralysis or weakness of one side of the body (Hemiparesis).
    • Double vision or Diplopia.
    • Fits, seizures or convulsions.

Q:What are the causes of a Brain Haemorrhage?

    • Hemorrhagic stroke – Seen in 30-60% of hospital admissions due to stroke. High blood pressure (BP) increases the risk of bleed in the brain in stroke patients.
    • Head Injury.
    • Rupture of Aneurysm – An aneurysm is a defect in the wall of the artery. As age advances the pressure of the flow blood causes thinning of this wall with an out pouching of the vessel (aneurysm). When the aneurysm ruptures it leads to Brain Haemorrhage.
    • AVM (Aretrio Venous Malformation) – There is an abnormal connection between the arteries and veins. This is usually a defect from birth. Due to this abnormal connection, the pressure in the arteries is directly transmitted to the veins leading to bleed over a period of time. When the AVM occurs in the brain blood vessels, it leads Brain Hemorrhage.
    • Brain tumor bleed – Some brain tumors are very vascular and may at times spontaneously bleed.
    • Disorders of Bleeding and Clotting of Blood – Can cause bleeding anywhere in the body including BRAIN.
