Brain tumors can develop quietly, often with symptoms that mimic common health issues. Early detection, however, significantly improves treatment outcomes. As neurosurgeons, we encourage patients to understand the early warning signs so they can seek timely medical attention. Symptoms may include persistent headaches, sudden vision changes, seizures, personality shifts, or unexplained nausea. While these signs don’t always indicate a tumor, they should never be ignored—especially when they appear suddenly or progressively worsen.
A neurosurgical evaluation typically includes a neurological exam, advanced imaging and personalized recommendations for care. Modern neurosurgery offers multiple safe and effective treatment options, including minimally invasive procedures that reduce recovery time.
