Dr. Sen and Dr. Costantino were featured in Discovery Network's TLC (The Learning Channel) special "Amazing Medical Stories". Part of this special depicted a patient's dramatic surgery to remove a life threatening tumor at the base of her brain. This non-cancerous tumor would effect her eyesight and mobilty, and would be fatal. Dr. Costantino had to disassemble the central part of her face, to create a large enough pathway through her mouth to allow Dr. Sen to successfully remove the brain tumor. Dr. Sen had to make certain that he removed all of the tumor cells because it could grow back, and she would be facing the same extensive surgery all over again.

Since the surgery was done entirely through the patient's mouth, there are no scars on her face. The result is that she can return to living a normal life, with complete functionality.
