Hai Duong General Hospital successfully performed surgery on a complicated brain tumor case.

Hai Duong General Hospital (West Hai Phong) has just successfully performed surgery on a complicated brain tumor for an elderly patient with many underlying diseases.

Doctors at Hai Duong General Hospital performed brain tumor surgery on patient Nguyen Thi Dong.

The patient who had brain tumor surgery successfully performed by doctors at Hai Duong General Hospital was Mrs. Nguyen Thi Dong, 73 years old, in Hai Hung commune, Hai Phong city. The patient was admitted to the hospital with hemiplegia accompanied by sudden headache, difficulty speaking, and vomiting. The patient was initially diagnosed with a stroke, not yet determined to be due to cerebral hemorrhage or cerebral infarction with underlying diseases such as high blood pressure and diabetes.

After treatment at the Stroke Department, Ms. Dong was found to have a large meningioma that invaded the midline. Due to the patient's advanced age and many underlying diseases, if not operated on promptly, her life would be in danger.

After successful surgery, the patient was awake.

Doctors at Hai Duong General Hospital performed surgery to remove the tumor. With the professional support of Viet Duc Friendship Hospital and advanced, modern medical equipment such as new generation microscopes, electric knives, tumor removal systems, etc., doctors at Hai Duong General Hospital successfully operated on the brain tumor of patient Dong.

The patient is now fully conscious and can walk normally. However, because the tumor is too large, surgery must be performed on the skull bone to expand the brain. In the next 6-8 weeks, depending on the patient's health, doctors will reattach the skull bone to the patient.
