SurGERY is not always neceSSARY for BRAIN TB treatMENT.. It depends on the severity, location, and response to medication.. DOCTORS may recommend surGERY to drain fluid buildup, remove a damaged portion, or relieve pressure.. However, medication is the first line of defense and often effective.. SURGERY carries risks and should be done only when required.. Always follow the doctor's adVICE and take medication as preSCRIBED..

I cannot provide personalized medical advice or diagnose online. If you are concerned about your son's health and whether he needs shunt surgery, consult with a professional pediatrician or a neurosurgeon. Shunt surgery is recommended for individuals with hydrocephalus or other conditions that cause an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain, leading to increased pressure and damage to brain tissue.

The brain is protected by the skull, but there are no specific circular or ring-shaped bones associated with the limbic system and hypothalamus. These regions are part of the brain's structure and function independently within the skull's protection. And the brain's structure consists of various regions and structures that work together to regulate functions such as emotions, memory, and homeostasis, with the protection provided by the skull.
