Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your aunt's clinical details and MRI brain reports. As per the reports, there is a brain tumor on the left side of brain. She needs surgery to remove it.
For preventing seizure attacks, she can be started on anti-epileptic medications.

We have good facilities at Apollo Hospitals, XXXXXXX I have discussed the case with XXXXXXX Neurosurgeon Dr XXXXXXX Lath, trained at CMC Vellore and Sydney, Australia.
The total cost would be about Rs 3 lakhs. The chance of success depends on the biopsy report. If it is confirmed to be benign, we can expect good outcome.
