Successful Treatment Depends on Successful Diagnosis
“My most memorable moment, as a mother, was when my daughter once said to me, prior to one of her surgeries in the pre-op room, that she would not be ready for surgery and feel at ease until she sees and speaks with Dr. Abdulrauf. … That statement alone displays the highest level of confidence and trust you can have in a neurosurgeon.“
~Kenneth and Rebecca Krimmel
What Is Craniopharyngioma?
Craniopharyngioma is a type of brain tumor that can affect both children and adults. It arises from the area of the Pituitary Gland at the base of the brain. It can invade the hypothalamus (a part of the brain in charge of regulating hormones) and the ventricles (fluid spaces inside the brain)
