Madinah – Mouwasat Hospital 

The medical team at Mouwasat Hospital Madinah achieved a remarkable milestone by successfully removing a large and complex arteriovenous malformation from the head of a Yemeni patient. This condition posed a significant health challenge, especially after a previous attempt at another hospital failed due to severe bleeding. 

Case Details 

The patient suffered from a rare and complicated vascular birthmark on the head. A prior surgical attempt was unsuccessful because of uncontrollable bleeding, which increased the complexity and risk of the case. 

Treatment Plan and Surgical Approach 

Under the supervision of a consultant in neurovascular surgery, the team developed a precise treatment strategy to minimize risks and ensure optimal results. The plan included: 

Successful Outcome 

The surgery was completed successfully without the need for a blood transfusion, a major achievement given the high-risk nature of the case. The patient was discharged in stable condition and is now on the path to full recovery.

Dammam – Mouwasat Hospital 

With the grace of Allah, the Neurosurgery Department at Mouwasat Hospital in Dammam successfully performed a high‑risk and rare microsurgical procedure to remove a large skull base tumor measuring more than 5 cm in the posterior cranial fossa, using the latest advanced neurosurgical technologies. 

Case Details and Diagnosis 

A 44‑year‑old female patient was referred to Mouwasat Hospital from another healthcare facility. Comprehensive clinical evaluation and advanced imaging revealed a large tumor located at the skull base, close to critical neurological centers—necessitating an urgent and highly precise surgical intervention due to its sensitive location. 

Microsurgical Tumor Removal 

The surgery was performed under the supervision of Dr. Omar Al‑Falaki, Consultant Neurosurgeon
with the support of a specialized multidisciplinary surgical team. 

The tumor was completely resected using: 

  • A high‑resolution surgical microscope 
  • An advanced surgical navigation system 
  • Continuous intraoperative motor function monitoring (IONM) 

The procedure lasted more than 10 continuous hours, ensuring accurate and safe removal of the tumor while preserving surrounding neurological functions. 

Postoperative Rehabilitation 

Following surgery, the patient underwent an intensive rehabilitation program at the hospital’s Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Center. By the grace of Allah, she made a remarkable recovery, regaining full mobility and returning to her family to resume her daily life normally. 

Mouwasat’s Commitment to Excellence
