Dr. Sisir Das

Dr Sisir Das is a Senior Neuro Surgeon at Apollo Multispeciality Hospitals, EM Bypass, Kolkata, with 25+ years of experience. Apollo lists MBBS, MS and MCh in Neurosurgery among his qualifications, while the hospital's Kolkata clinical-team profile also records a Fellowship in Neuro-Oncology. He consults in English, Hindi and Bengali/Bangla.

His neurosurgical practice covers brain tumours and complex cranial conditions, as well as disorders affecting the spine and peripheral nervous system. Apollo's current profile lists conditions including brain tumours, skull fractures, extradural haematoma, seizures, peripheral neuropathy and trigeminal neuralgia among the neurological problems associated with his clinical care.

Procedures linked to his Apollo profile include skull surgery and treatment for trigeminal neuralgia, while his broader specialist background includes neuro-oncology and complex neurosurgery. The appropriate operation or non-surgical pathway depends on neurological examination, CT or MRI findings, tumour or lesion characteristics, previous treatment and the patient's overall clinical condition.

Dr Das's fellowship background in neuro-oncology is particularly relevant when a patient requires surgical assessment of a suspected or confirmed brain tumour. Neurosurgical cancer care may involve coordination with neurology, neuroradiology, pathology, radiation oncology and medical oncology depending on the diagnosis and treatment plan.

For international patients, initial review may include MRI or CT images, radiology reports, pathology results and details of previous neurological treatment. India Medical Help can assist with submitting these records and coordinating an enquiry with Apollo; the treating neurosurgical team determines the diagnosis, surgical suitability and final treatment plan.
