FAQs about skull-base surgery

How do I know if I need skull-base surgery?

If your scan shows a tumor or any abnormal tissue pressing on nerves or the brain, your doctor may suggest this operation. Some people notice signs like hearing loss, balance issues, or numbness in the face. A proper MRI or CT scan usually confirms whether surgery is needed.

Is endoscopic skull-base surgery safe?

Yes, when handled by an experienced neurosurgeon, it’s quite safe. The surgery is done using a tiny camera and slim tools through the nose, so there’s very little pain or scarring. Most patients recover faster than they would after traditional open surgery.

How much does skull-base surgery cost in Bangladesh?

The cost isn’t the same for everyone—it depends on the hospital, the patient’s condition, and how complex the surgery is. In most cases, the total expense, including the operation, hospital stay, and post-surgery care, ranges from about BDT 3 lakh to 8 lakh. Dr. Mohammed Shamsul Islam Khan discusses every detail clearly with each patient before the procedure, so there are no surprises later.

How long is the recovery after skull-base surgery?

Usually, patients stay in the hospital for around three to seven days. After going home, it may take a few more weeks to regain full strength. Regular checkups help the doctor track recovery and prevent any complications.
