Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) also known as Stereotactic Radiation Therapy (SRT) is an advanced, non-surgical, and specialized form of radiation therapy that comprises multiple, non-coplanar photon radiation beams and allows us to deliver high precision radiation to localized lesions or a well-defined cancerous or non-cancerous tumour using 3D imaging and localization techniques.

Brain metastases are the most common intracranial malignancies; out of a hundred, almost 10 to 20 per cent of cancer patients develop brain metastases during their health complications.

This modernized form of radiation treatment involves a team of specialists, including radiologists, radiation oncologists, physicists, radiation therapists and nurses, and other specialized doctors and other technical staff.

Hemicolectomy is a surgery performed to remove the diseased part of the colon and preserve the healthy one. For instance, removing the right side of the colon and attaching a small part of the intestine to the healthy colon is called a right hemicolectomy.

It is carried out to treat colon-related disorders such as colon cancers, severe diverticulitis, Crohn's disease, and other diseases.

Types of Hemicolectomy

Based on the side of the colon removed, it can be divided into two types:

Right hemicolectomy:The ascending colon is removed, and the transverse colon is reattached to the small intestine.

Left hemicolectomy:The descending colon is removed before reattaching the transverse colon.

Thyroidectomy is indicated when the thyroid gland needs to be removed. Thyroidectomy is a procedure in which the thyroid gland is surgically removed. The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of the neck. It produces hormones that control heart rate, metabolic rate, brain development, muscle, and digestive function, and bone maintenance.

Thyroidectomy treats thyroid disorders like cancer, a benign enlargement of the thyroid termed goitre, and an overactive thyroid gland termed hyperthyroidism.

Types of Thyroidectomy Surgery

Thyroidectomy can be classified into two types based on the amount of the thyroid gland that needs to be removed.

These types are:

Partial thyroidectomy

Total thyroidectomy

Cardiac catheterisation allows a catheter to be directed through a blood vessel to the heart. Cardiac catheterisation provides essential information about the components of the heart, such as heart valves, heart muscles, and blood vessels. In addition, this procedure can help diagnose or treat certain heart conditions, such as embolisms or arrhythmias.

This process permits doctors to perform different heart tests, treat conditions, or do a biopsy (remove tissues for examination). It is also required for certain heart procedures, such as coronary stenting and angioplasty.

Cardiac catheterisation is usually done under local anaesthesia. The patient is usually not put to sleep during the procedure. Medicines are given to help the patient relax. Recovery time for this procedure is quick and carries negligible risk in experienced centres.

Orthotopic Liver Transplant is a surgical procedure in which the diseased native liver is replaced with a new one taken from a recently deceased individual in the same anatomic position. Orthotopic Liver Transplant is the treatment of choice for end-stage liver disease (chronic liver failure).

A deceased donor is one who has pledged to donate their organs/s upon their natural death. The surgical procedure is complex and requires meticulous harvesting of the donor organ and implantation into the recipient. Since a liver transplant is a high-risk procedure, it requires major lifestyle changes post-operation.

Lobectomy is a surgical treatment for lung diseases, it involves removing a lobe of the lung. The lungs have different parts called lobes. The right lung is divided into three lobes, and the left is divided into two. The procedure is conducted on the side of the chest by making a few small incisions (minimally invasive) or one long incision (thoracotomy). Along with the affected lobe, nearby lymph nodes may or may not be removed based on the underlying disease. The procedure is less invasive, which helps to conserve lung functioning. Lobectomy is commonly performed for non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) where tumours are confined to a single lobe, infections like aspergilloma, and necrotizing pneumonias.

Appendectomy is an emergency surgical procedure to remove an inflamed appendix, known as appendicitis. Appendicitis needs urgent medical attention and surgery; if left untreated, it can rupture, causing infection and be life-threatening.

An appendix is a small, finger-shaped, narrow organ located on the lower right side of the belly. It is a small pouch that doesn't perform any important function in the body.

Laparoscopic appendectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to remove the appendix through a few small incisions. Laparoscopic surgery is recommended as this procedure has a lesser risk than open appendectomy surgery. It is less painful and has a faster recovery time.

Jaw implant surgery, also known as jaw augmentation, is a procedure performed to enhance the structure and aesthetics of the jawline. This surgical intervention involves the placement of artificial implants to reshape and enhance the size and contour of the jaw.

Types of Jaw Implants

There are several types of jaw implants available, each designed to address specific concerns and desired outcomes. The common types of jaw implants include:

Mandibular Angle Implants: These implants are placed at the angles of the jaw to increase the width and definition of the lower jaw.

Chin Implants: It is used to augment and enhance the size and shape of the chin. They provide balance and symmetry to the facial profile.

Pre-jowl Implants: These implants are used to improve the contour and definition of the jawline by filling in the area just in front of the jowls.

Full Jaw Implants: Full jaw implants involve placing implants along the entire jawline to enhance the overall shape and size of the jaw.
