spectrum of cases in neurosurgical practice.
“I am, however, drawn to the challenges of
vascular surgery and lesions involving the sellar and suprasellar locations
such as giant craniopharyngiomas. I fancy surgical excision of lesions in the
peri-sylvian area particularly around the speech area and the motor strip. I
also like to operate on intraventricular tumors which are often huge in our
part of the world. Colloid cysts and posterior third ventricular tumors are
also part of my areas of interest,” informed Dr. Aadil.
Dr. Aadil is also setting up Free Trauma
care to accident victims on the dangerous National Highway 17 (now renamed NH 66)
which connects Mumbai to Goa. The first of many such trauma units is being set
up at (Kambla) Mahad a site which is particularly prone to accidents and is
near the Savitri river where there was this infamous bridge collapse where over
70 innocent victims lost their lives
