Two Brothers Successfully Treated for Rare Brain Conditions
Two brothers from Odisha needed treatment for different rare problems in their brains.
Babul Anabari was 17 and had a rare tumour called Ewing’s sarcoma.
Doctors operated on him at Medicover Hospitals in Visakhapatnam.
A later scan showed that no active tumour remained in his brain.
Rajesh Anabari was 16 and became drowsy and weak on one side of his body.
Doctors found a very large hydatid cyst in his brain.
They carefully removed the cyst without breaking it.
Both brothers recovered and are now stable.
Babul Anabari, 17, was treated for a rare Ewing’s sarcoma brain tumour.
A recent PET scan found no metabolically active tumour in Babul’s brain.
Rajesh Anabari, 16, developed drowsiness and one-sided paralysis caused by a giant brain hydatid cyst.
