My brother has a minute 243617 mm brain tumor and the doctors recommended surgery. We're really worried about the risks can you explain what kind of surgery it might be and how it's done? Also, which hospitals in North India are the best for this operation? We don't know much about the process and could use some guidance.

My grandfather is 83 and had a fall in the bathroom that caused a blood clot in his brain. The doctors are recommending surgery, but I'm worried can surgery really fix this at his age? Is it safe for him to go through the procedure? Would really appreciate your advice.
Sorry to hear about situation. Age is not the only factor, surgery and outcome depends on his general health, state of his heart function. Please discuss with physician and neurosurgeon.
