Novosibirsk neurosurgeons saved seven-year-old Matvey with a huge 7.5-centimeter brain cabernoma.
The boy fell ill right in the classroom: he complained of a severe headache and lost consciousness. The test revealed dangerous bleeding, so the doctors decided to operate urgently - without intervention, the child might not live until morning.
Surgeons were able to remove the structure overnight. Now Matvi has fully recovered, returned to his normal life, and the doctors found no neurological disorders in him. The boy will undergo regular tests during the next five years.
Novosibirsk doctors plan to describe this rare case in a scientific paper.
