A brain tumor diagnosis can be overwhelming, but with expert care and cutting-edge technology, recovery and a better quality of life are possible. Dr. Vamshi Krishna, an experienced and highly-skilled neurosurgeon, leads the way in offering precise, safe, and advanced brain tumor surgery for patients of all ages.
A brain tumor is an abnormal growth of cells in or around the brain. Tumors can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) and may arise from brain tissue or spread from other parts of the body.
Symptoms
Symptoms may include headaches, seizures, memory issues, balance problems, or changes in vision and speech.
Brain tumours can present in many different ways depending on their size, location, and how quickly they are growing. Recognizing the early symptoms is crucial for timely diagnosis and treatment. Many symptoms may seem subtle at first but can progressively worsen over time.
Some of the most common symptoms of a brain tumour include persistent headaches that are often worse in the morning or when lying down. Patients may experience unexplained nausea or vomiting, especially without any gastrointestinal cause. Vision problems like blurred or double vision, or a sudden loss of peripheral vision, can also be a warning sign.
Other symptoms may include seizures in individuals with no previous history, difficulty with balance or coordination, and weakness or numbness in the arms or legs. Brain tumours can also affect speech, concentration, memory, and even personality or behavior.
In some cases, patients may experience hearing problems, difficulty swallowing, or hormonal changes if the tumour is near the pituitary gland. Children may show symptoms like increased head size, irritability, or delayed developmental milestones.
Dr. Vamshi Krishna—one of the best Neurosurgeons in Hyderabad, with services in Nampally and Hitech City—offers expert evaluation and advanced neuroimaging to help detect brain tumours early and begin appropriate care.

Treatment Approach for Brain Tumours
Expert Care Tailored to Each Patient
We follow a personalised and multidisciplinary approach to treat brain tumours, combining clinical excellence with advanced technology. Dr. Vamshi Krishna, one of Hyderabad’s leading neurosurgeons, ensures that every patient receives care suited to their specific condition, tumour type, and overall health.
1. Diagnosis & Imaging
The first step involves a thorough neurological examination, followed by high-resolution MRI or CT scans to determine the tumour’s size, location, and nature (benign or malignant). A biopsy may be done for a definitive diagnosis.
2. Surgical Treatment
Whenever possible, surgical removal of the tumour is the first line of treatment. Using advanced microsurgical and minimally invasive techniques, Dr. Vamshi Krishna ensures maximum tumour removal with minimal damage to surrounding brain tissue.
3. Radiation Therapy
For tumours that are hard to remove completely or are located in sensitive areas, radiation therapy (such as stereotactic radiosurgery) is used to shrink or control tumour growth.
4. Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy may be used, especially for malignant or aggressive tumours. It can be given orally or intravenously, depending on the tumour type and response to treatment.
5. Targeted & Immunotherapy
In select cases, targeted therapies and immunotherapies are considered, based on genetic testing of the tumour. These advanced treatments aim to attack tumour cells while sparing healthy tissue.
6. Rehabilitation & Follow-Up
Post-treatment support is crucial. Patients may need physical therapy, speech therapy, or occupational therapy. Regular follow-ups and imaging help monitor for recurrence and manage long-term recovery.
