TV and film actor Settar Tanrıöğen suffered a brain hemorrhage at his home in Istanbul last week.
The veteran actor was rushed to the hospital and underwent surgery.
'HEMORRHAGE DETECTED'
Acıbadem Ataşehir Hospital Chief Physician Dr. Engin Çakmakçı provided the following information regarding the health status of the artist Settar Tanrıöğen, whose treatment for an aneurysm hemorrhage in his brain vessels is ongoing:
"On Friday, January 26, 2024, following medical evaluations conducted due to complaints of headache and confusion, it was determined that our patient, Settar Tanrıöğen, had a hemorrhage between the brain and the meninges as a result of the rupture of an aneurysm (bubble) in his brain vessels.
Following an emergency intervention performed by interventional neuroradiology specialist Prof. Dr. Hatem Hakan Selçuk and his team, our patient was admitted to the intensive care unit. On Sunday, January 29, 2024, an increase in cerebrospinal fluid, which can potentially develop due to the hemorrhage in the brain, was detected in our patient, and an interventional procedure was performed by our neurosurgery team to balance the fluid pressure.
Our patient's treatment is being continued by a multidisciplinary team consisting of neurology, neurosurgery, and interventional neuroradiology specialists, as well as the intensive care unit director Prof. Dr. İsmail Cinel and his team. As of today, his clinical condition is stable. Due to the presence of risks that may arise after such brain hemorrhages, our patient Settar Tanrıöğen will continue to be closely monitored in our intensive care unit for a while longer."
