Surgeons of National Medical Center first stented brain aneurysm on their own

According to the agency, such interventions were previously usually carried out in the country with the involvement of foreign specialists. The patient was a 55-year-old resident of the Surkhandarya region. He had long been suffering from dizziness and vision problems, and after an examination at the center, he was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm. As UzA notes, this condition poses a significant threat to life and health. For treatment, the doctors chose stenting. In this procedure, a stent is inserted into the affected vessel through a thin catheter to restore its patency, without requiring trepanation of the skull. According to the medics, this method reduces the risk of tissue damage, significantly shortens recovery after the operation, and allows the patient to return to a healthy life faster.
