NHS Grampian Surgeon Performs World-first Surgery

Lodged by Jackie Dunbar (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 24 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Anastasios Giamouriadis, consultant neurosurgeon at NHS Grampian, who has carried out world-first surgery to remove a large brain tumour through a patient’s eyebrows; understands that this ground-breaking procedure will allow for surgeons to remove brain tumours the size of large apples through a patient’s eyebrows; notes that Mr Giamouriadis has adapted an existing technique to remove the growths, leaving patients with only a small scar and black eye, with many individuals being able to leave hospital just 24 hours later and return to work within days of the procedure; commends the efforts of Mr Giamouriadis and the team involved in carrying out the procedure, and wishes them all the best.
