Surgeons in Ottawa used a new procedure to remove a tumour from behind a woman’s eye, writes Sharon Kirkey. They cut it up and extracted it through her nose. It’s part of a growing enthusiasm for using the body’s natural openings to gain access to inner organs.

In an eight-hour procedure led by neurosurgeon Dr. Amin Kassam, doctors created a corridor from Fitzgerald’s nasal cavity to the back of the orbit, the bony eye socket. Gently they pried away two eye muscles straddling the tumour, freed the tumour from the optic nerve and other contents of the eye socket, dissected it and then pulled it out through Fitzgerald’s nostrils.
“It’s almost unreal to think they could do it that way, isn’t it?” she says.
