Young Girl Triumphs over Spinal Tumour after Successful
Surgery at Saudi German Hospital Hail

21 March 2024- Surgeons at Saudi German Hospital Hail recently achieved a remarkable feat,
providing a 20-year-old girl a second chance to walk following complex spinal tumour surgery.

Tests revealed a primary malignant tumour in her thoracic vertebra causing a fracture and limiting
her mobility.

The surgical team opted for a patient-centric approach, conducting a successful surgery that spared
her from chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

Utilising advanced equipment, surgeons delicately removed the affected vertebra and ribs through
a minimally invasive procedure. A stent was then installed for stabilization.

This achievement showcases the hospital’s commitment to exceptional care, driven by ‘Caring
Like Family’ ethos and world-class medical professionals.
