Disease Profile Treated: 

The department comprises several clinical programs that encompass the entire spectrum of neurosurgical practice. All kinds of Neurosurgical emergencies and Neurotrauma are managed by the team with a dedicated NeuroICU. We treat a number of brain tumors regularly, some of which include gliomas, meningiomas, cerebello-pontine angle tumors (Acoustic Schwannomas), ependymomas, medulloblastomas and abscess at all locations of the brain.  Regularly treated spinal cord tumors include intradural neurofibromas, meningiomas and intra medullary astrocytomas.  The vascular surgeries being done include clipping of the cerebral aneurysms and excision of Arterio-Venous malformations (AVM). Functional neurosurgeries like micro vascular decompression of the trigeminal nerve are being done on a regular basis.  Pediatric brain tumors, hydrocephalus, encephalocele and spina myelo-meningoceles repairs are done on a regular basis. Spine surgeries being done include C1-C2 fixations (Atlanto-Axial Subluxation) , fixation of the Odontoid fracture and fracture dislocations of cervical and thoraco- lumbarspine, Combined anterior and posterior stabilization are done on a routine basis. Micro lumbar discectomies and transforaminal lumbar inter vertebral body fusions (TLIF) anterior and posterior stabilization of the cervical spine with state of art instrumentations are done on a regular basis at affordable price. Endoscopic, Endonasal Skull base Surgeries are performed in collaboration with the Department of E.N.T. Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (MISS) is also undertaken in our department.
