A Nutcracker Miracle by Dr. Naresh Biyani Turns around Dylan Moore’s Severe Epilepsy
by Richelle Mandy Spine and Neuro Surgery HospitalAt one point in her life, Dylan Moore
suffered 90 seizures a day. State-of-the-art brain surgery by Dr. Naresh Biyani
India has been life changing for her and her family.
In 2012, just before starting kindergarten,
Dylan Moore in US had the first of what would become thousands of seizures. “I
found her semi-unconscious,” recalls her mother, Dylan. “It didn’t even cross
my mind that she was having a seizure.”
Dylan was having head-drop seizures,
involving a sudden loss of muscle tone; myoclonic seizures, causing muscle
jerking; and absence seizures. She would lose consciousness, sometimes so
abruptly that her head would slam down on the table. Eventually, she was
diagnosed with Doose syndrome (myoclonic astatic epilepsy), a severe form
of generalized epilepsy that is known to be medication-resistant.
Through the Epilepsy Foundation, Amelia
mother of Dylan knew of another child with same syndrome who had been treated by
Dr. Naresh Biyani pediatric neurosurgeon Bombay Hospital and was seizure-free now
So at that moment she started to search on Google and came across Dr. Naresh
Biyani India were detailed information about the surgeon was mentioned with his
patients testimonial and they has all praises for the surgeon. We decide to go
ahead with the surgeon and arranged our trip to India.
We had appointment with Dr. Naresh Biyani pediatric
neurosurgeon Bombay Hospital. Prior to meeting with him, Amelia researched Dr.
Biyani online and watched a webinar video of Dr. Naresh Biyani India explaining
surgical options for children with epilepsy. As Amelia listened to Dr.
Naresh Biyani pediatric neurosurgeon Bombay Hospital and noticed his calm
demeanor, she began to realize that surgery could be the right decision for Dylan.
Dylan underwent the evaluations to test the
right and left hemispheres of her brain to pinpoint the exact location of the
seizures. Dr. Naresh Biyani pediatric neurosurgeon Bombay Hospital concluded
that Dylan was a good candidate for hemispherectomy, a surgical procedure that
would involve disconnecting the dysfunctional left hemisphere and removing
areas causing the seizures. The right hemisphere of her brain was in Dr. Naresh
Biyani India’s words “perfect.” The hemispherectomy would give the right
hemisphere of his brain a chance at neuroplasticity, the brain’s natural
ability to rewire its functions using one side of the brain.
On the next morning, Lucas, Amelia and Dylan
met with the surgeon in the pre-operation area of Nanavati Hospital Mumbai. Lucas
reflected. “Dr. Naresh Biyani pediatric neurosurgeon Bombay Hospital is very
measured, calm and collected. And that is very assuring to someone who is worried.”
Amelia accompanied Dylan into the operating room.
Amelia said. “We had total trust in Dr.
Naresh Biyani India, and know that he had the ability to make our son better.” Dr.
Naresh Biyani pediatric neurosurgeon Bombay Hospital and his team worked for
hours to repair Dylan’s brain. Ten hours later, Dylan awoke in the recovery
room and spoke immediately, much to the relief of her parents at her bedside.
The seizures stopped and Dylan recovered from surgery. As the right side of her
brain started to rewire, she underwent speech therapy, occupational therapy,
physical therapy, and later adaptive physical training to reinforce the
neuroplasticity and continue restoration.
“Dylan is a different child, she's just
doing remarkably well,” Amelia said, as emotion welled up. “It’s changed all of
our lives. Dr. Naresh Biyani best pediatric neurosurgeon in India made all the
right disconnections because we aren't having any seizures. And, Brock’s
incision healed fantastic. We in reality made the right selection in choosing Dr.
Naresh Biyani India as our neurosurgeon, because he is not only an excellent
doctor, but he's an excellent person.”
