Archana Sawant, a 44-year-old woman from South Mumbai, underwent scarless endoscopic brain tumor surgery at Solaris Hospital in Thane. She had been suffering from Acromegaly, a hormonal disorder that causes a variety of distressing symptoms.

Her condition deteriorated after being misdiagnosed with PCOD, leading to depression and isolation. Dr. Amit Aiwale, a renowned Neurosurgeon at Solaris Hospital, was referred to her by an ENT specialist. Dr. Aiwale used MRI and hormonal testing to diagnose Acromegaly, which revealed a 1.5 x 2 cm pituitary macroadenoma with elevated IGF-1 levels.

Dr. Aiwale proposed an advanced solution: endoscopic transnasal pituitary macroadenoma excision surgery, which would take advantage of Solaris Hospital's cutting-edge technology.

Archana Sawant recovered in five days, with no visible scars and dramatic facial improvement. Her skin smoothed out, her body hair shrank, and her menstrual cycles returned to normal.

Dr. Amit Aiwale highlighted the success and improved survival rates in pituitary tumor surgery due to diagnostic advancements and surgical expertise, while Archana Sawant's story is a testament to medical progress and renewed hope for patients like her.
