Neurosurgery is a highly specialized medical field focused on diagnosing and surgically treating conditions affecting:
The brain (tumors, aneurysms, trauma)
The spinal cord (herniated discs, fractures, deformities)
Peripheral nerves (carpal tunnel, nerve injuries)
Neurosurgeons treat life-threatening and complex neurological disorders, helping patients regain function and quality of life.
✔ Brain tumors (benign & cancerous)
✔ Aneurysms & strokes
✔ Epilepsy (when medication fails)
✔ Hydrocephalus (fluid buildup in the brain)
✔ Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
✔ Herniated discs (pinched nerves)
✔ Spinal cord injuries
✔ Spinal tumors
✔ Peripheral nerve compression
Used for complex brain/spinal tumors
Requires craniotomy (removing part of the skull)
Endoscopic surgery (small incisions, faster recovery)
Laser ablation (for tumors & epilepsy)
Robotic-assisted surgery (precision-guided)
Stereotactic radiosurgery (Gamma Knife, CyberKnife)
Intraoperative MRI (real-time imaging during surgery)
Neuro-navigation systems (GPS-like precision)
Medical School (4 years)
Neurosurgery Residency (6–7 years)
Optional Fellowship (1–2 years in specialties like pediatric or vascular neurosurgery)
Precision & steady hands
Problem-solving in high-pressure situations
Knowledge of cutting-edge technology
🔹 Robotics → More precise, less invasive procedures
🔹 AI-assisted diagnostics → Faster, more accurate tumor detection
🔹 Gene therapy trials → Potential future for brain disease treatment
Hospital stay: Varies (days to weeks)
Rehab needs: Physical therapy, speech therapy (for brain surgery patients)
Long-term follow-ups to monitor recovery
Consult one if you have:
Persistent headaches with vision changes
Numbness/weakness in limbs
Severe neck/back pain with nerve symptoms
Seizures unresponsive to medication
✔ Specialized expertise in delicate nervous system structures
✔ Access to advanced surgical options
✔ Comprehensive care from diagnosis to recovery
