Ulaanbaatar, June 9, 2025 /MONTSAME/. The Third State Central Hospital introduced the technology of surgery for deep-seated brain tumors, and the necessary equipment for surgery was handed over to the Hospital on June 5, 2025.
Within the framework of the policy of “Reducing incurable diseases in Mongolia”, medical specialists of the Hospital have been trained at the Koc University Hospital and American Hospital of the Republic of Türkiye to localize “Surgical treatment of deep-seated complex brain and spinal cord tumors and tumor-like disorders.”
The Hospital team successfully performed surgery on 18
patients with tumors in deep brain structures, including thalamus, basal
ganglia, and pituitary gland, in Mongolia, using modern surgical
techniques and skills acquired in developed countries.
Accessing deep brain structures is a complex and high-risk operation, but the successful introduction of technological advances into medical practice has brought the quality of diagnosis and surgery to a new level. The Third State Central Hospital Directors emphasized that the Hospital staff is working to further develop this type of surgery and introduce safer and more effective methods of treating severe brain tumors.
