- Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH): We provide diagnosis and treatment for aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations (AVM) using both surgical and interventional techniques.
- Endoscopic Brain and Spine Surgery: Minimally invasive procedures for brain and spine tumors, disc prolapse, and hydrocephalus, offering quicker recovery and reduced discomfort.
- Paediatric Neurosurgery: Specialized care for children with neurological disorders such as hydrocephalus, brain tumors, congenital anomalies, and tethered cord syndrome.
- Spinal Surgeries: Advanced treatment for spinal tumors, tuberculosis (Pott’s spine), disc prolapse, spinal injuries, and spinal fixation.
- Functional Neurosurgery: We provide procedures like Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, and epilepsy surgery, and treatment for movement disorders.
- Peripheral Nerve Surgery: Surgical treatment and management for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, brachial plexus injuries, and nerve tumors such as neurofibromas and schwannomas.
- Skull Base Surgery: Advanced endoscopic and transcranial procedures for conditions affecting the skull base, including pituitary tumors, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak repair, and surgeries for orbital and ENT related tumors.
We utilize advanced techniques and minimally invasive approaches for a variety of neurosurgical and spine procedures, prioritizing safety and recovery.
- Microsurgery for Brain Tumors: Precise removal of brain tumors including gliomas, meningiomas, posterior fossa, and intraventricular tumors using advanced imaging, stereotactic navigation, and high-precision tools for minimal risk and optimal outcomes.
- Trauma Surgery for Head Injuries: Emergency interventions for severe head injuries, including skull fractures and brain hemorrhages.
- Endoscopic Pituitary Tumor Surgery: Minimally invasive surgery through the nasal passage for quick recovery and reduced hospital stays.
- Neurovascular Surgery: Clipping and coiling procedures for aneurysms and treatment of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), performed in collaboration with our neurologists and intensivists.
- Spinal Instrumentation Surgery: Stabilization of the spine for trauma, degenerative conditions, and disc prolapse like lumbar/cervical disc prolapse using minimally invasive techniques.
- Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS): Implantation of devices to treat movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and dystonia.
- Endoscopic Spine Surgery: Minimally invasive spine surgery for conditions such as disc prolapse, resulting in faster recovery and reduced post-operative discomfort.
- Peripheral Nerve Surgery: Microsurgical techniques for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, brachial plexus injuries, nerve tumors, nerve entrapment syndromes, and traumatic injuries.
Our department is equipped with the latest technology to support complex neurosurgical procedures, including:
- Microsurgical Equipment: Minimally invasive and high-precision instruments for brain and spine surgeries, ensuring faster recovery and reduced pain for patients.
- Advanced Imaging: Equipped with high-resolution MRI, CT scanners, and stereotactic navigation systems for accurate diagnosis and surgical planning.
- Endoscopic Systems: Minimally invasive tools for brain and spine surgeries, facilitating quicker recovery and reduced pain.
- Dedicated Neurosurgical ICU: A fully equipped Intensive Care Unit offering 24/7 continuous monitoring for post-operative care, ensuring a smooth and safe recovery for patients.
- Collaboration with ENT and Other Specialties: Close cooperation with departments like ENT for complex surgeries involving skull base tumors, pituitary tumors, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak repairs.
