Neurosurgery
What is Neurosurgery?
Neurosurgery covers a wide range of surgical procedures aimed at treating various conditions and abnormalities in the brain, spinal cord and surrounding structures.
Brain disorders
Neurosurgery offers effective treatments for various brain disorders.
Our dedicated neurosurgeon is ready to treat patients with care and precision for conditions such as:
- Brain tumours
- Brain haemorrhage
- Congenital brain and blood vessel abnormalities
- Disorders of cerebrospinal fluid circulation (hydrocephalus)
Spine surgery
Spinal surgery, also known as spinal surgery or spinal surgery, is a medical speciality that focuses on surgical procedures on the spine.
Our neurosurgeon has extensive experience in treating spinal problems:
- Fractures of the spine
- Cervical disc herniation and stenosis in the cervical spinal canal
- Lumbar disc herniation and stenosis of the lumbar canal
- Tumours at the level of spinal cord and nerves
We aim to provide every patient with tailor-made and effective solutions.
Functional Neurosurgery
Functional neurosurgery is a medical specialisation that focuses on surgical interventions in the brain to treat specific neurological disorders, especially those that affect daily functional aspects of life.
Its aim is to improve patients' quality of life through targeted interventions:
- Surgery for chronic pain/ spinal cord stimulation
- Surgery for facial pain
- Surgery for epilepsy/depression
- Brain stimulation for Parkinson's, epilepsy, pain, psychiatric disorders
- Peripheral nerve disease such as carpal tunnel syndrome
Technology
The advanced technologies together form a powerful combination that enables the neurosurgeon to work with great accuracy, identify critical structures and perform safe, targeted interventions.
Microscope and Neuronavigation
This technology combines a high-quality surgical microscope with neuronavigation to increase the precision of neurosurgical procedures. The microscope provides a magnified view of the surgical area, while neuronavigation offers real-time guidance.
This allows the surgeon to work in detail on specific anatomical structures, while the navigation system displays the current position of surgical instruments on previously acquired images, enabling precise and controlled surgery.
Intra-operative MRI
This is an advanced imaging technique used during surgery. Instead of images obtained before surgery, intra-operative MRI allows detailed images of the brain or spinal cord to be obtained during surgery.
This provides the surgeon with a real-time view of anatomical structures, allowing for precise adjustments during the procedure.
Robotised 3D imaging
Robotised 3D imaging refers to the use of robotics combined with advanced 3D imaging technologies. For example, this system can be applied to obtain detailed and dynamic images of the operation area.
The robotics help stabilise the imaging equipment and direct it accurately, giving the surgeon optimal visualisation. This contributes to the precision of the procedure and can be useful in complex neurosurgical procedures.
