It is indicated if the neoplasm is large and disrupts brain function. The type of operation is chosen by the doctor, based on the individual characteristics of the patient's health and his examination results. To reduce or remove the cyst, neurosurgeons perform the following <a href=\"https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases/arachnoid-cysts\">interventions</a> :</p><h3> Shunting (drainage) of a brain cyst</h3><p> Brain cyst shunting is a neurosurgical procedure during which the doctor inserts a special shunt into the neoplasm. Through it, fluid from the cyst is gradually excreted into the abdominal cavity. The operation allows you to reduce the size of the neoplasm and its pressure on the brain tissue. It is indicated for the treatment of cerebrospinal fluid (arachnoid) and colloid cysts of the brain.</p><h3> Fenestration of a cyst in the brain</h3><p> This is a surgical opening of a cyst in the brain that allows fluid to drain and avoid the complications associated with a shunt. During the intervention, the neurosurgeon creates one or more holes in the shell of the neoplasm, which are connected to the circulation pathways of the cerebrospinal fluid. Due to this, the cyst gradually decreases.</p><p> In order for the operation to be as safe as possible, the doctor uses neuronavigation. This system allows you to track the location of surgical instruments and minimizes the risk of damage to healthy brain tissue.</p><h3> Laser cyst removal</h3><p> During this operation, the neurosurgeon performs a thin puncture in the skull bone. Through it, a small electrode is brought to the cyst, which acts on the tissues of the neoplasm with a dosed flow of light energy. It dissolves cyst tissue and cauterizes small blood vessels to prevent bleeding. The doctor removes the resulting liquid with a special tube.</p><h3> Open and endoscopic removal of a brain cyst</h3><p> For open surgery, a neurosurgeon temporarily removes part of the cranial bone. This allows excision of large or hard-to-reach neoplasms, but this procedure requires a long recovery and is associated with a high risk of postoperative complications. In foreign clinics, open intervention is carried out in extreme cases, when other treatment is impossible. In order to reduce the risk of complications, doctors use special neurosurgical microscopes and neuronavigation systems. The patient can return to normal life in 10-14 days.</p><p> Endoscopic removal of a brain cyst is performed by surgeons through 1-2 thin punctures up to 1 cm in size in the skull bone. This allows you to maximize the preservation of healthy brain tissue and eliminate the risks associated with open surgery. In some cases, the patient can leave the clinic the very next day after the operation.</p><h3> Is it possible to remove a brain cyst through the nose?</h3><p> An operation to remove a cyst in the head through the nose is possible only for small neoplasms that are located in certain areas of the brain. Such an intervention requires high qualification and experience of a neurosurgeon, therefore it is not performed in every clinic.</p><h3> Brain cyst removal: prices</h3><p> The cost of removing a brain cyst depends on:</p><ul><li> the chosen surgical technique;</li><li> general health of patients;</li><li> selected countries and clinics.</li></ul><p> The cost of the operation in your particular case can be provided by the Bookimed coordinating doctor. To do this, you need to provide us with your medical records and test results. The coordinator will send them to the neurosurgeon at the clinic of your choice. You will receive a preliminary treatment plan and its exact cost. If something does not fit, the coordinating physician will continue to select the best solution. </p></div><h2> Is it possible to treat a brain cyst without surgery?</h2><i class=\"fa fa-angle-down\"></i><div class=\"accordion-item-text\"><p> To treat a brain cyst without surgery, doctors use drug therapy. It allows you to alleviate the symptoms of the disease and postpone the surgical intervention. The doctor selects drugs based on the age, general health of the patient and the manifestations of the disease.</p><div class=\"info-block-wrapper\"><p> <strong>It is important to know!</strong> Medical therapy cannot replace surgical treatment. If the cyst grows rapidly and disrupts the functioning of the body, the doctor prescribes an operation. </p></div></div><h2> What is the difference between the treatment of brain cysts in children and adults?</h2><i class=\"fa fa-angle-down\"></i><div class=\"accordion-item-text\"><p> For the treatment of brain cysts in children, doctors perform the same interventions as for the treatment of adults. At the same time, it is important that the child is operated on by a pediatric neurosurgeon in a specially equipped operating room. During the intervention, he must use computer monitoring to track the location of the instruments and the actions performed as accurately as possible.</p><p> Highly qualified pediatric neurosurgeons can perform brain cyst removal even in newborns. However, such an intervention is carried out only if the neoplasm grows rapidly and threatens the development or life of a small patient.</p></div>"},"guide_mc":{"text":"<p>Arrival</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Transfer from airport to hotel or clinic.</li>\n<li>Settle into accommodations.</li>\n<li>Complete necessary paperwork for treatment.</li>\n<li>Prepare for the initial hospital or clinic visit.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Diagnostics</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Undergo a comprehensive physical examination.</li>\n<li>Head MRI to locate the cyst and assess its size.</li>\n<li>Additional tests depending on the symptoms and cyst location.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Treatment Plan Development</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Meeting with neurologist to discuss diagnosis and treatment options.</li>\n<li>Personalized treatment plan based on cyst size, location, and symptoms.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Treatment</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Non-surgical treatment options if cyst is small and asymptomatic.</li>\n<li>Surgical removal under general anesthesia for large or symptomatic cysts.</li>\n<li>Post-surgery care during hospitalization period.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Follow-Up</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Regular check-ups to monitor healing and detect any complications.</li>\n<li>Additional MRI scans to ensure cyst has been completely removed.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Rehabilitation</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Physical therapy to regain strength and coordination if necessary.</li>\n<li>Occupational therapy for any required adaptations in daily life.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p><i>Please note that only a doctor can determine a diagnostic and treatment plan, and it\"s individual.
