Could Corpus Callosum Lipoma Cause Headache,nausea And Weakness?

They found a corpus callosum lipoma mass and it is benign. It has been giving me horrible headaches, left side weakness and just very tired and nauseous. It is a pretty good size. How do they safely take it out and what is hospital stay time and recovery time?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It is benign (non cancerous) condition. However it can compress the surrounding brain tissue and causes the symptoms. In that case surgical removal may be needed. Consult a neurosurgeon and he will direct you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
