This lesion can be excised with IONM, but it'll be a very high risk procedure.

Patient needs surgical excision. For very needy, non affording patients, Lahore General Hospital / PINS is the recommended facility. Surgery will be totally free of cost.
Another option is just biopsy or debulking (partial removal to reduce size) of the tumor followed by SRS(Cyberknife) from Ghurki hospital.
at Ghurki cyberknife department offers services on Sehat card.
Hope that helps.
It is better that patient should contact Ghurki trust hospital Lahore. They provide free services for poor patients. Moreover , staff is very competent.
Thank you for your question. In homeopathy, medicine is selected according to the complete symptoms and patient constitution. For accurate remedy selection, a detailed case history is required. You may consult for proper homeopathic treatment.
