Neurosurgery is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on the surgical treatment of disorders and conditions affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems, including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. Neurosurgeons are highly skilled medical professionals who are trained to perform surgical interventions to address a wide range of neurological conditions.

The field of neurosurgery encompasses a diverse range of procedures, including brain surgery, spinal surgery, peripheral nerve surgery, and stereotactic and functional neurosurgery....Read More

Neurosurgery plays a crucial role in the management of various conditions, including brain tumors, spinal cord tumors, vascular malformations, degenerative spinal disorders, traumatic brain and spinal injuries, epilepsy, movement disorders (such as Parkinson's disease), and congenital abnormalities. These conditions can have a significant impact on a patient's quality of life and often require surgical intervention for diagnosis, treatment, or symptom relief.

Neurosurgeons work closely with a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, including neurologists, radiologists, anesthesiologists, and critical care specialists, to provide comprehensive care for patients. They employ advanced imaging techniques, such as computed tomography (CT), to accurately diagnose and plan surgical procedures. Neurosurgical interventions can range from open surgeries, where incisions are made to access and treat the affected area, to minimally invasive procedures, such as endoscopic or laparoscopic approaches, that involve smaller incisions and specialized instruments.

Neurosurgery requires meticulous precision and a deep understanding of the complex anatomy and physiology of the nervous system. It is characterized by continuous advancements in surgical techniques and technology, such as image-guided navigation, intraoperative monitoring, and the use of robotics. These advancements have contributed to improved surgical outcomes, reduced risks, and shorter recovery times for patients.

The primary goals of neurosurgery are to alleviate symptoms, improve function, and enhance the quality of life for patients with neurological disorders. This may involve tumor resection, decompression of spinal cord or nerve roots, correction of spinal deformities, removal of blood clots or hematomas, or the placement of implants or devices to treat neurological conditions.

Neurosurgery is a rapidly evolving field that continues to push the boundaries of medical science. Through ongoing research, innovation, and collaboration, neurosurgeons strive to develop new treatment modalities and improve surgical techniques to provide the best possible outcomes for their patients.

At Platinum Hospitals, we take pride in our team of renowned neurosurgeons who possess exceptional skill, extensive experience, and a deep understanding of the intricacies of the nervous system. 

Brain Tumour Surgery: Our neurosurgeons have expertise in performing intricate brain tumour surgeries, ranging from minimally invasive procedures to more extensive resections. We employ advanced imaging technology, such as neuronavigational systems, to precisely locate and remove tumours while preserving healthy brain tissue.

Spinal Surgery: We offer a comprehensive range of spinal surgeries, including spinal fusion, discectomy, laminectomy, and spinal deformity corrections. Our neurosurgeons utilize advanced techniques and tools, such as robotic-assisted surgery and minimally invasive approaches, to provide effective treatment for spinal conditions, including herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and spinal fractures.

Vascular Neurosurgery: Our neurosurgeons are skilled in treating cerebrovascular disorders, such as aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), and carotid artery stenosis. We employ both microsurgical and endovascular techniques to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients, utilizing advanced imaging technology to guide our procedures.

Functional Neurosurgery: Our team specializes in functional neurosurgical procedures, including deep brain stimulation (DBS) for movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease and essential tremor, as well as surgical interventions for epilepsy and chronic pain conditions. We work closely with multidisciplinary teams to provide personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique needs.

At Platinum Hospitals, we recognize the importance of staying at the forefront of technological advancements in neurosurgery. We continually invest in new equipment and advanced surgical techniques to ensure that our patients have access to the most advanced and effective treatment options. Our hospitals are equipped with cutting-edge operating theatres, advanced imaging modalities, and sophisticated neurosurgical instrumentation, enabling our surgeons to perform complex procedures with precision and safety.

Patient centred care

At Platinum Hospitals, we firmly believe in providing patient-centered care that addresses the unique needs, concerns, and goals of each individual. We understand that undergoing neurosurgery can be a stressful and emotional experience, and our team is dedicated to ensuring that our patients feel supported, informed, and empowered throughout their journey.
