A brain tumour does not affect just one part of the body. Depending on where it develops, it can affect how a person moves, speaks, sees, remembers or functions every day. At the Centre for Cancer Care at Sterling Hospitals, patients receive specialised care across surgery, precision-guided procedures, cancer treatment and rehabilitation.

Our multidisciplinary approach brings together expertise across different stages of care, with treatment planned around the type and location of the tumour, its impact on brain function and the individual needs of each patient.

Comprehensive Cancer Care

Brain tumour treatment can involve more than one form of care. Depending on the condition, a patient may require surgery, radiosurgery, medical treatment, radiation therapy, rehabilitation, or a combination of these. At Sterling Hospitals, treatment is planned with a coordinated approach focused on treating the tumour while preserving important brain functions wherever possible and supporting recovery after treatment.

Key Services

• Brain Tumour Surgery

Surgical treatment to remove brain tumours while carefully protecting surrounding healthy brain tissue and important neurological functions.

• Awake Brain Surgery or Craniotomy

A specialised surgical approach in which selected patients remain responsive during part of the procedure, helping surgeons monitor important functions such as speech and movement while operating.

• Image-guided Neurosurgery

Also known as stereotactic neurosurgery, this approach uses advanced imaging and navigation technology to help surgeons locate and approach brain tumours with greater precision during surgery.

• Radiosurgery

Also known as stereotactic radiosurgery, it uses highly focused, high-energy radiation beams to precisely treat small tumours in the brain and central nervous system without conventional open surgery. It may be recommended when surgery is unsafe or the tumour is difficult to reach.

• Medical and Radiation-based Cancer Treatment

Treatment options such as medicines and radiation therapy may be used independently or alongside surgery, depending on the type, stage and characteristics of the tumour.

Rehabilitation after Brain Tumour Surgery

Structured rehabilitation helps patients work towards regaining movement, speech, balance, strength and independence following brain tumour treatment. Rehabilitation process will be as follows:

• 1. Assess Recovery Needs - The care team evaluates movement, strength, balance, speech, swallowing and everyday functioning.
• 2. Personalised Rehabilitation Plan - Based on individual needs, rehabilitation may include physiotherapy, speech and swallowing therapy, occupational therapy and mobility support.
• 3. Rebuild Strength & Function - Therapy gradually helps improve movement, communication and the ability to perform everyday activities.
• 4. Return to Daily Life - Rehabilitation continues according to the patient's progress, helping them regain greater independence and return to daily routines safely.
