感谢 8TV 《Living Delight》邀请我上直播节目！

非常感谢 8TV Living Delight 的邀请，让我有机会在直播节目中分享主题
《脾气突变竟和脑癌有关系！》。

情绪或脾气的突然变化，确实有可能与脑瘤有关。虽然这种情况并不罕见，但往往非常隐匿、细微，甚至可能在长时间内慢慢发生，因此连最亲近的家人也未必能马上察觉。正因为如此，许多患者的确诊被拖延，治疗也因此延后，最终造成更差的预后。

🔍 常见的脑瘤症状包括：
• 头痛
• 恶心、呕吐
• 视力模糊
• 癫痫发作
• 动作笨拙
• 听力下降
• 步态不稳

💡 治疗方面
在许多情况下，手术切除仍然是最佳治疗方式。
对于适合的病人，也可选择**立体定位放射手术（如 Gamma Knife 伽玛刀）**作为另一种有效方案。

当然，手术一定有风险，但手术提供了治愈的机会。
若脑瘤长期不处理，最终仍会造成相同甚至更严重的并发症，而且完全没机会康复。

再次感谢 8TV Living Delight 的邀请，也希望今天的分享能够帮助更多大众提高警觉、及早求医，让更多患者受惠。

Thank You to 8TV “Living Delight” for the Live Interview!

My sincere appreciation to 8TV Living Delight for inviting me to their live program to share on the topic:
“Sudden Temperament Changes May Be Linked to Brain Tumour!”
👉 (Link to the interview video: click to watch)

Temperament or personality changes can indeed be related to brain tumours. Although this sign is not uncommon, it is often subtle, developing gradually over a long period, making it difficult even for close family members to detect early. This frequently leads to delayed diagnosis, delayed treatment, and eventually worse prognosis.

🔍 Common symptoms of brain tumours include:
• Headache
• Nausea and vomiting
• Blurring of vision
• Seizures
• Clumsiness
• Hearing impairment
• Unsteady gait

💡 Treatment Options
In many cases, surgical excision remains the best treatment option.
For selected patients, stereotactic radiosurgery, such as Gamma Knife, is also an effective alternative.

While surgery does carry risks, it provides a real chance for cure.
If a brain tumour is left untreated, the same complications will eventually occur — often more severely — and the chance of recovery becomes zero.

Once again, thank you to 8TV Living Delight for the invitation, and I truly hope this information will be beneficial to the public and help more people recognise early warning signs.

脾气突变竟和脑癌有关系！

10/12/2025

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to 8TV Living Delight for inviting me to their live TV program to share on an important topic—— 《脾气突变竟和脑癌有关系！》.

Many people may not realise that temperament or personality changes can be an early sign of brain tumour. These changes are actually not uncommon, yet they are often subtle, developing gradually over months or even years. Because of this, even close family members may overlook them.

Unfortunately, this can lead to delayed diagnosis and later delayed intervention, both of which can significantly worsen the patient’s prognosis. Early recognition and timely medical attention are crucial.

Thank you once again to the 8TV team for the opportunity to raise public awareness on this silent but serious warning sign. I hope the sharing today will help more families detect early red flags and seek help sooner.

Endoscopic thoracic surgery

30/11/2025

I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to the Organising Committee of the KL International Spine Summit 2025 for the kind invitation to deliver a talk entitled “Transforaminal Endoscopic Thoracic Discectomy for Giant Herniated Disc.”

It was truly an honour to share this platform with many distinguished local and international experts. While endoscopic spine surgery is often described as a “game changer,” I believe its true value lies not only in innovation — but in how it has drastically improved patient outcomes, enhanced surgical precision, and significantly reduced complications compared to conventional open techniques.

Thank you once again to the organising committee for the excellent arrangement and for creating such a meaningful platform for knowledge exchange and advancement in spine care.

Thank You & Appreciation Statement
I am truly honoured to be elected as the Chair of the WIP Malaysia Section. My deepest gratitude goes to the World Institute of Pain for this trust and recognition, and to all my Malaysian colleagues who have supported and voted for me.

This appointment is not just a personal milestone—it is a responsibility I carry on behalf of our Malaysian pain community. I will do my very best to bring Malaysia to a higher level on the global platform, to strengthen our international collaborations, and to continue promoting excellence in pain practice, education, and fellowship training.

Thank you once again for your confidence in me. Together, we will move forward and make Malaysia proud.

16th ThaiMISST 2025
Endoscopic Spine conference

It was my great honor to be invited as a speaker at the 16th ThaiMISST 2025 Conference.
My sincere thanks to Dr. Thanit Foocharoen, President of ThaiMISST, for the kind invitation and warm hospitality.

I presented on “Transforaminal Endoscopic Thoracic Discectomy.”
Endoscopic thoracic spine surgery is truly a game changer — offering a much safer and less invasive option compared to the traditional open or thoracoscopic techniques.

Although thoracic disc herniation is relatively rare, it can cause significant morbidity when it occurs. The advancement of endoscopic technology brings new hope for better outcomes and faster recovery for our patients.

I am truly honored to be invited as a speaker at the 1st International Society of Endoscopic Cervical Spine Surgery (ISECSS). My deepest gratitude goes to Dr. Lim Kang Taek, President of ISECSS, for his leadership and kind invitation. It is a privilege to share insights on Relevant Anatomy and Endoscopic Management of Cervicogenic Headache.

Cervicogenic headache remains a true diagnostic dilemma. Neurologists treating headache may not always be familiar with spinal pathology, while spine surgeons focusing on the spine may not always be familiar with headache pathology. As a result, this condition is often under-diagnosed or misdiagnosed, leaving many patients without proper relief. Endoscopic cervical surgery, as a highly minimally invasive technique, offers the possibility of effective relief for most patients with cervicogenic headache.

“Pain is not always where it is felt—the true generator may lie elsewhere.”
