Big Tromma in my mouth from Last 10yr

Hello Vijay Ji,

Gamma Knife radiosurgery is a highly advanced, noninvasive procedure used to treat brain conditions such as tumours, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), and certain neurological disorders like trigeminal neuralgia. Despite its name, it is not a surgical procedure in the traditional sense—there’s no incision, no general anesthesia, and minimal recovery time.

How It Works:

• The procedure uses precisely focused beams of gamma radiation to target abnormal brain tissue while sparing surrounding healthy tissue.

• A specialized head frame or mask is used to ensure accuracy.

• The treatment is typically completed in a single session, lasting a few hours.

• Patients remain awake throughout, though mild sedation may be given for comfort.

Benefits:

✅ No incisions, stitches, or hospital stay required
✅ Minimal side effects compared to traditional surgery
✅ High precision targeting, reducing damage to surrounding tissue
✅ Quick recovery—most patients resume daily activities within a day or two

Possible Side Effects:

Some patients may experience mild headaches, temporary fatigue, or swelling in the treated area. Serious complications are rare.

If you’re considering Gamma Knife treatment, we recommend consulting a specialist to determine if it's the right option for your condition.

Dear Sachin Yadav Ji,

We're sorry to hear about your diagnosis. An aggressive metastatic hepatic tumor, such as mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), requires a comprehensive treatment approach tailored to your specific condition.

Treatment Options:

1. Surgical Intervention:

   • Resection: If the tumour is localized and you have sufficient liver function, surgical removal of the tumour may be considered. However, in cases of metastasis, surgery might not be feasible.
   • Liver Transplant: For certain patients with early-stage HCC, liver transplantation could be an option.
     
     

2. Systemic Therapies:

   • Chemotherapy: Systemic chemotherapy is commonly used for unresectable or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma.
   • Targeted Therapy: Drugs targeting specific genetic mutations or pathways in cancer cells are available for HCC and cholangiocarcinoma.
   • Immunotherapy: Agents that enhance the immune system's ability to fight cancer, such as checkpoint inhibitors, have shown promise in treating advanced liver cancers.
     
     

3. Locoregional Therapies:

   • Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE): This procedure delivers chemotherapy directly to the liver tumour while blocking its blood supply.
   • Radioembolization (Selective Internal Radiation Therapy—SIRT) involves injecting tiny radioactive beads into the liver's blood vessels to target the tumour.
     
     

4. Palliative Care:

   • Focuses on relieving symptoms and improving quality of life, especially when curative treatments are not an option.
