Brain Tumor
Deborah Kelley thought she had another migraine, but an MRI showed a brain tumor. With the news, Kelley underwent an “awake” surgery in which the neurosurgeon, Dr. Dan Silbergeld of the University of Washington Medical Center, used stereotactic navigation to precisely locate the tumor, a cancerous glioma, while monitoring Kelley’s language skills. This helped Silbergeld and his team know the greatest amount of potential tumor removal. After surgery, Kelley opted for radiation therapy, too.
