Brain Tumor Surgery in Durgapur, West Bengal
Brain tumor surgery is one of the most critical and precise procedures in neurosurgery. Whether the tumor is benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous), timely diagnosis and expert surgical intervention can significantly improve outcomes and preserve neurological function.
Now available in Durgapur, patients from West Bengal, Jharkhand, and Eastern India can access world-class brain tumor surgery under the care of Dr. Hardik Rajyaguru, a fellowship-trained neurosurgeon known for his expertise in microsurgical, minimally invasive, and endoscopic brain tumor removal.
What is a Brain Tumor?
A brain tumor is an abnormal growth of cells in the brain or surrounding tissues. It can originate in the brain (primary tumor) or spread from other parts of the body (secondary/metastatic tumor).
Tumors can be:
-
Benign (slow-growing, non-cancerous)
-
Malignant (fast-growing, cancerous)
-
Intra-axial (within brain tissue)
-
Extra-axial (outside brain tissue, e.g., meningiomas)
Symptoms That May Indicate a Brain Tumor
-
Persistent headaches (especially worse in the morning)
-
Seizures or unusual body movements
-
Blurred vision, speech issues, or confusion
-
Weakness or numbness in limbs
-
Memory problems or personality changes
-
Difficulty with balance or coordination
Early symptoms can be subtle. MRI or CT scans help confirm the presence and location of the tumor.
Diagnosis & Evaluation
Before recommending surgery, a detailed neurological evaluation and imaging workup is performed:
-
MRI Brain with Contrast – to identify size, location, and characteristics
-
CT Scan – for calcification or skull base involvement
-
MR Spectroscopy or PET scan – to assess aggressiveness
-
Biopsy or FNAC – in selected cases before surgery
-
Neuro-navigation Planning – for surgical accuracy and safety
Types of Brain Tumors Treated Surgically
Dr. Hardik Rajyaguru has extensive experience in treating:

Surgical Approaches Offered
Depending on tumor type and location, one of the following may be used:
✅ Microsurgical Tumor Resection
Using a high-powered microscope to safely remove the tumor while preserving surrounding brain structures.
✅ Endoscopic Brain Tumor Surgery
Performed via small incisions or through natural openings (e.g., nose) for deep-seated or midline tumors like pituitary adenomas.
✅ Stereotactic Biopsy
Minimally invasive technique to sample tumors located in sensitive areas for diagnosis and planning.
✅ Craniotomy with Navigation
Advanced 3D-guided surgery for deep or critical-area tumors, using neuronavigation for precision.
