Hi, It seems that you had tuberculous meningitis with tubercular access in left temporal region, for which Left front temporal Cranston with evacuation of access might be done. So once operation is done part of brain tissue would be removed. Like any wound in body which when heals will leave with scar, it is the same thing in brain which is called as gloss. Gloss is a process of scarring in the central nervous system. It results from the proliferation of astrocytes in an injured or diseased part of the brain, causing the formation of a fibrous glial scar. Although they are a necessary element to injury recovery, both the accumulation of glial cells and subsequent scarring are important markers of neurological damage. Scar cannot be removed, it produces headache and seizure
