Peripheral Nerve Surgery: Peripheral nerve surgery focuses on diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the peripheral nervous system. Surgeons operate on nerves outside the brain and spinal cord to repair injuries, relieve pain, or restore function. Common procedures include nerve decompression to alleviate compression or entrapment, nerve grafting to repair damaged nerves, and neuroma excision to remove painful nerve tissue. Peripheral nerve surgery aims to restore sensation, improve mobility, and enhance

Vascular Brain Surgery: In the field of advanced neurosurgical interventions, vascular brain surgery coiling is widely regarded as a remarkable technique, offering hope to patients with intracranial aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs).

Aneurysm coiling is a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat cerebral aneurysms, which are weak points in blood vessel walls that pose a risk of rupture. During the procedure, a neurointerventionist guides a catheter through the blood vessels, reaching the aneurysm site. Subsequently, platinum coils or other bioactive materials are gently inserted into the aneurysm, promoting blood clot formation, and effectively sealing off the aneurysm from the circulation. This innovative technique not only mitigates the risk of rupture but also obviates the need for open surgery, leading to shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery times.

Similarly, AVM embolization represents another landmark development in the field. Arteriovenous malformations are tangled networks of blood vessels that can lead to dangerous bleeding or seizures. In this procedure, a neurointerventionist strategically deposits embolic agents, such as glue-like substances or microspheres, into the AVM, inducing a controlled blockage of blood flow. By gradually closing off abnormal vessels, the risk of hemorrhage or related complications is substantially reduced. This approach can be curative or preparatory, making subsequent surgical removal or radiosurgery safer and more effective.

At our neurosurgery center, these intricate procedures are performed by a team of skilled neurointerventionists using state-of-the-art imaging and navigation technologies. We prioritize patient well-being, providing comprehensive evaluations, personalized treatment plans, and post-procedure care to ensure the best possible outcomes. By embracing advancements like aneurysm coiling and AVM embolization, we strive to enhance patient lives while reaffirming our dedication to pushing the boundaries of neurological care.

Neuro-radiosurgery: Neuro-radiosurgery is a groundbreaking advancement in medical technology that offers precise and non-invasive treatment for various neurological conditions. It involves delivering high doses of radiation to specific targets within the brain, obliterating abnormal tissue while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy structures.

The Versa HD and Linear Accelerator (Linac) are pivotal tools in this field. The Versa HD is a cutting-edge system designed for advanced radiotherapy and radiosurgery. With its exceptional precision, it enables clinicians to precisely shape radiation beams to match the tumor's contour. This enhances treatment effectiveness while minimizing exposure to healthy tissues. Linear Accelerators, commonly used in neuro-radiosurgery, generate high-energy X-rays that can be precisely directed to the target area. These machines rotate around the patient, delivering radiation from multiple angles, ensuring accurate targeting while sparing adjacent tissues. This technology is particularly crucial for treating complex brain tumors and conditions where conventional surgery may have limitations.
Incorporating these technologies into neuro-radiosurgery exemplifies our commitment to pushing the boundaries of medical care, allowing patients to access safer, more effective treatments with minimal disruption to their lives.

Equipment Used in Neurosurgery:

The neurosurgery department is equipped with cutting-edge technology and instruments that aid in precise diagnosis, surgical planning, and treatment execution. Here are some commonly used equipment:

1. Neuroimaging Systems: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that utilizes the power of strong magnetic fields. These fields, often generated at strengths of 1.5 to 3 Tesla (T) or higher, interact with the hydrogen atoms in the body. When subjected to the magnetic field, these atoms temporarily align with it. By emitting radiofrequency pulses, the MRI system disrupts this alignment. As hydrogen atoms return to their original state, they release energy signals. These signals are detected by the MRI machine and processed into highly detailed, cross-sectional images of the body's internal structures. The strength of the magnetic field is crucial, as higher field strengths provide improved image resolution and clarity, allowing medical professionals to diagnose conditions with exceptional accuracy while minimizing the need for invasive procedures., Computerized Tomography (CT), and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans provide detailed images of the brain, spine, and nerves. In addition, Single-photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT) , a powerful medical imaging technique, also aids in diagnosing and understanding various conditions. By introducing a small amount of radioactive material into the body, SPECT captures gamma ray emissions emitted by these molecules. A rotating gamma camera detects these emissions from multiple angles, creating detailed 3D images of the distribution of the radioactive substance. This provides valuable insights into blood flow, tissue metabolism, and functional activity. SPECT plays a pivotal role in neurology, cardiology, oncology, and more, helping medical professionals uncover hidden insights that guide accurate diagnoses and effective treatment plans. These scans help in identifying the location and extent of abnormalities.
2. Stereotactic Navigation Systems: These advanced systems assist Neurosurgeonsin pinpointing the exact location of a tumor or lesion during surgery. They integrate preoperative imaging data with real-time surgical information, enabling precise guidance.
3. Microscopes and Endoscopes: High-powered surgical microscopes allow neurosurgeons to visualize intricate details during surgery. Endoscopes, with their tiny cameras and lights, are used in minimally invasive procedures, reducing the need for large incisions.
