Balloon Helps Doctor Reach Brain Tumor

Posted by michael on from the coming-through dept.

Anml4ixoye writes "A neurosurgeon at Cincinnati Children's Hospital has succesfully completed removal of a tumor in an previously thought inoperable part of the brain. The doctor, Kerry Crone expanded a balloon at the end of a cathader to push the neurons aside and remove the tumor, which was located at the thalamus. CNN is also running the story."
