cPA is a tumor in the posterior chamber of the brain affecting the balance nerve

A successful precise surgery was performed to remove a tumor from the posterior cranial fossa, where the tumor was directly affecting the balance nerve (vestibular nerve) and the nerve responsible for facial muscle movement (seventh cranial nerve). This sensitive area controls balance, motor coordination, and facial expressions.

Key Symptoms of the Condition:

• Severe dizziness and balance disorders

• Weakness or paralysis in facial muscles

• Difficulty closing eye or smiling

• Tinnitus and hearing loss

• Frequent nausea and vomiting

• Difficulty walking and motor coordination

Goal of the Surgery:

• Tumor removal while preserving healthy nerves

• Restoring facial muscle function

• Improving balance and motor coordination

• Preventing neurological function deterioration

• Preserving hearing ability as much as possible

Advantages of the Procedure:

• Use of advanced neuro-navigation systems

• Intraoperative nerve monitoring equipment

• High-precision surgical microscope

• Techniques for preserving sensitive nerves

• Multidisciplinary team approach

Recovery and Follow-up Period:

• Intensive care for 2-3 days post-surgery

• Specialized rehabilitation for balance and face

• Gradual improvement in facial expressions over weeks

• Regular exercises to restore balance

• Periodic follow-up with neurologists

• Progressive return to activities within 6-8 weeks
