  • Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery | Dr. Sampath Chandra Prasad Rao | Manipal Old Airport Road

    Mr. Chandrasekhar Shetty, a Dubai-based professional from Mangalore, began experiencing severe headaches in February 2025. Initially diagnosed with sinus issues and admitted to the ICU with low sodium levels, further scans revealed a Skull Base Tumor. Concerned about avoiding external scars or incisions, he was referred to Dr. Sampath Chandra Prasad Rao.

    Dr. Sampath Chandra performed a completely endoscopic excision of the tumor using advanced anterior skull base surgical techniques. The surgery was highly successful — Mr. Shetty recovered without complications, including CSF leak, and was able to resume normal life within three weeks. Post-surgery, he was referred for radiation and is now ready to return to Dubai in good health. His story reflects expert surgical care, innovation, and the hope of a healthy future.
