Endoscope
With the endoscope we can use a special fiber optic microcamera to see inside the tissues and direct special tools for biopsies and to investigate anatomical abnormalities, opening new drainage channels of the cerebrospinal fluid (eg 3rd ventriculostomy), opening of brain cysts , removal of pituitary tumours, removal of cerebral hematomas, and even the surgical […]
Microsurgery
Just like other specialties, modern Neurosurgery often requires the use of a microscope to properly treat conditions such as slipped disk in the waist and neck, surgery for vascular lesions of the brain (aneurysms, vascular malformations, tumors), and spinal cord surgery. The use of a surgical microscope is now necessary in every […]
Arachnoid cysts
These are congenital disorders formed by the pathological development of one of the membranes of the brain, namely the arachnoid mater. Normally this meninge is a thin membrane that covers the brain, leaving only minimal space, where the cerebrospinal fluid is located and circulating. If, due anatomical damage, this membrane allows for the […]
Hydrocephalus
Hydrocephalus is a condition of the brain characterized by abnormal concentration of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). CSF is produced in special sacs in the brain called ventricles. The fluid circulates around the brain and the spinal cord, offering protection and support for the central nervous system. It is constantly produced and is reabsorbed at […]
Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery
Neurosurgery techniques have been developed in order for operations to be performed with the least possible risk of body injury. Especially in Neurosurgery, where the object of treatment is the valuable nerve tissue, which if damaged can not be regenerated, the minimally invasive technique is really valuable for patients. Minimally Invasive Methods utilize technologies such […]
