just received an sms that my nephew has brain cyst and has to be operated in a hospital in Nairobi Kenya,
at first the doctors thought he has malaria after the medication didn't help the parents asked for a scan.
is the operation dangerous.

Depends on a lot of things such as the location of the cyst, its adherance to neighboring structures, the skill of the surgeons, etc., etc.. Try contacting one of his doctors see if you can get a little more information. Good Luck....
