Finding out you or someone you love has a brain tumour is overwhelming. The fear, the questions, and the uncertainty can feel like too much to handle at once.
That is exactly why having the right surgeon matters.
Dr. Sai Shiva Tadakamalla is a consultant neurosurgeon in LB Nagar, Hyderabad, specialising in brain tumour surgery at Gleneagles Aware Hospital, LB Nagar. With over 7 years of experience and advanced fellowship training in skull base and cerebrovascular surgery from PGIMER Chandigarh, he has managed a wide range of brain tumours, from the most common to the most complex.
His approach is straightforward. He evaluates each case carefully, explains the diagnosis in simple terms, and recommends surgery only when it is truly needed. When surgery is the right option, he uses modern microsurgical techniques and advanced imaging to remove as much of the tumour as safely possible, while protecting the parts of the brain responsible for movement, speech, and memory.
Not every brain tumour requires the same treatment. Some need immediate surgery. Others are better managed with close monitoring or a combination of surgery and further treatment. Dr. Sai Shiva takes the time to understand each patient’s condition individually before recommending a path forward.
If you have been diagnosed with a brain tumour or have been advised to see a neurosurgeon, the first step is a proper consultation.

What Is Brain Tumour Surgery?
Brain tumour surgery involves the surgical removal or treatment of a tumour located within or around the brain. The goal of surgery depends on the type, size, location, and behaviour of the tumour. In some cases, complete removal may be possible, while in others, partial removal or biopsy is performed to reduce symptoms and guide further treatment such as radiation or chemotherapy.
The procedure is carefully planned using advanced imaging techniques to minimise risk to surrounding brain structures responsible for movement, speech, vision, and other critical functions.

Symptoms Of Brain Tumours
Brain tumour symptoms vary depending on tumour size, location, and growth rate. Common symptoms include persistent headaches, seizures, weakness or numbness in limbs, vision or speech difficulties, balance problems, and changes in memory or behaviour. Any new or worsening neurological symptoms should be evaluated promptly.
When Is Brain Tumour Surgery Recommended?
Brain tumour surgery may be recommended when a tumour causes pressure on the brain, leads to neurological symptoms, shows signs of growth, or requires tissue diagnosis. Surgery is also considered when non surgical treatments are insufficient or when tumour removal can improve quality of life and neurological function. The decision is made after careful assessment of risks, benefits, and individual patient factors.
