alt=\"Glioblastoma Patient Feels Vibrant and Grateful 18-Months After Surgery\"><strong>Gabriel Zada, MD<\/strong><\/a><strong>, <\/strong>director of the USC Brain Tumor Center, was recently named\u00a0Keck\u00a0Medical Center of USC\u2019s inaugural 2023 Physician of the Year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDr. Zada handles a large number of intricate, high-risk cases; and in those situations, the emotional needs of patients and families can be understandably high,\u201d said Stephanie Hall, MD, Keck Medical Center of USC\u2019s chief medical officer. \u201cHe advocates for his patients at every level of care.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of his recent high-risk patients, Della Gallagher, traveled from Canada to benefit from his expertise. After she experienced a massive seizure in 2021, she was diagnosed with a glioblastoma with a grim prognosis.<\/p>\n<p>In Alberta, Gallagher was offered surgery to minimally reduce the tumor. \u201cWe knew that wasn\u2019t going to be enough,\u201d she said. \u201cThey didn\u2019t have the surgical skills to do more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A friend connected her and her husband, Ian, with Dr. Zada, who performed an awake craniotomy. Dr. Zada removed the entire tumor and rogue cells in the surrounding tissue. During the surgery, anesthesia was lifted to keep Gallagher awake for critical memory and speech monitoring to avoid injuring any important brain pathways.<\/p>\n<p>After her surgery, Gallagher enrolled in a clinical trial at USC for a drug, enzastaurin, which has been used to treat certain cancers and is now being tested for glioblastoma. Generous support from donors, such as Dr. Robert Kolesnik, and Joe and Kelly Self, help make such trials possible. Della Gallagher continues to fight her tumor with the investigational drug. \u201cSo far, I feel good, no side effects,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Eighteen months after her surgery Gallagher still feels good and there is no signs of the tumor returning. Ian and Della can\u2019t say enough about the quality of care and attention they\u2019ve received from the entire staff. They said, \u201cthe care is awesome.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n
