Young Girl Triumphs over Spinal Tumour after

Successful Surgery at Saudi German Hospital Hail

By Middle East News 247 March 22, 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.
