Brain Cancer Treatment in Kampala,  Uganda

Brain Cancer

Tumours in the brain, whether they originate there or spread from elsewhere in the body, can affect memory, movement, vision, or personality, depending on where they sit. These tumours range from slow-growing gliomas and meningiomas to more aggressive types such as glioblastoma. Our Department of Cancer offers specialist care for treating each type of tumour. UMC Victoria Hospital approaches brain cancer treatment in Uganda with a combination of neurosurgical and oncological expertise:

  • Advanced neuroimaging
    MRI and CT scans to locate and characterise the tumour precisely
  • Neurosurgical intervention
    tumour removal or biopsy performed with attention to surrounding brain function
  • Radiation therapy
    targeted treatment for tumours that can't be fully resected
  • Chemotherapy support
    used alongside surgery or radiation, depending on tumour type
  • Neurological rehabilitation
    support for patients recovering movement, speech, or cognitive function post-treatment

Consult cancer specialists at our hospital for advanced diagnosis, clear communication, and medical as well as surgical care of brain tumours.
