According to reports, doctors at a hospital in Lucknow performed brain surgery on a patient who was using his cell phone in the operating room. They were able to remove a tumor. According to “The Times of India,” the patient had to be actively involved in their therapy on September 11 in order to reduce the possibility of nerve damage. The Awake Craniotomy technique was used for the procedure.
The operation was performed at the Kalyan Singh Cancer Institute in Chak Ganjaria after 56-year-old Lucknow resident Harishchandra Prajapati was told he had a brain tumor and started to have headaches, weakness in his left hand and leg, and other symptoms.

Medical research has advanced the use of safer techniques for executing acute treatments.
A complex brain tumor that was the source of the 62-year-old man’s visual issues was surgically removed utilizing a nasal route by medical personnel at a private hospital.
Pituitary adenoma, a benign tumor that arises from the pituitary gland at the base of the brain, is the diagnosis made when the patient was brought to Ujala Cygnus Hospital in Nangloi, according to Dr. Monique Garg, Senior Consultant in Neurosurgery.
The tumor can be reached and removed with the least amount of damage to the surrounding brain tissue using the transnasal transsphenoidal method, which involves entering the tumor through the sphenoid sinus and nasal passages. After surgery, his vision significantly improved, and we anticipate more improvement in the upcoming weeks, according to Garg.
Following the surgery, the patient was able to count fingers up to six meters away. After leaving the hospital, the patient returned for a follow-up consultation one week later.
