A Man Of Abu Dhabi's Acute Headache Revealed A Rare, Fatal Illness; An Eight-Hour, Intricate Surgery Saved His Life.

The medical case is remarkable since it included a 23-year-old resident of Abu Dhabi who had a severe headache that turned out to be extensive intracerebral bleeding, a potentially fatal complication of Evans Syndrome, an uncommon autoimmune disorder.

Rather than dismissing it as a side consequence of his lifestyle, he hurried to the hospital to get help. He was diagnosed with Evans Syndrome, a rare result that led to extensive intracerebral bleeding, which was discovered by medical professionals at Lifecare Hospital in Musaffah. The child’s life was saved in large part by the prompt and efficient surgical operation.

Ahmad spent the entire day suffering from a severe headache before arriving at the hospital. Physicians noticed a modified sensorium or a shift in brain activity, resulting in disorientation, memory loss, etc. Massive intracerebral bleeding was discovered via a CT scan, which elevated the situation to a severe medical emergency.

Ahmad’s situation was deemed high-risk by expert neurosurgeon Dr. Ratnakar Vupputuri.
“Immediate surgical intervention was necessary to relieve pressure and correct the shifting of the brain’s center due to the massive intracerebral bleed and impending brain herniation,” Dr. Vupputuri told Khaleej Times.
