Services — Neurosurgery

The full breadth of cranial, spinal and paediatric neurosurgery — free for every patient.

Cranial Surgery

Cranial Procedures

AVM Excision

Meticulous dissection and complete removal of cranial and spinal arterio-venous malformations.

Aneurysm Clipping

Clipping of intracranial aneurysms in any location of the brain, following digital subtraction angiography (DSA).

Giant Aneurysms under Circulatory Arrest

For giant or exquisitely located aneurysms, clipping under cardiopulmonary bypass, profound hypothermia and total circulatory arrest — expertise available in only a handful of centres worldwide.

Dural AV Fistula & Cavernomas

Operative disconnection of DAVFs, and neuro-navigation-guided excision of cavernomas in eloquent or deep-seated locations.

Trigeminal Neuralgia

Microsurgical separation of the offending vessel from the nerve — a very gratifying operation for this painful condition.

Brain Tumours

Gliomas (Grade I–IV), acoustic tumours, meningiomas, complex cranial-base tumours, pituitary tumours (trans-nasal trans-sphenoidal), skull tumours, metastases and intraventricular tumours.

Paediatric Neurosurgery

Children’s Neurosurgical Care

✓Posterior fossa tumours — medulloblastoma, ependymoma
✓Optochiasmatic / hypothalamic tumours & craniopharyngiomas
✓Pineal region tumours
✓Chiari malformation & encephalocoele
✓Hydrocephalus — shunts & endoscopic third ventriculostomy
✓Spinal dysraphism repair & craniovertebral junction anomalies
Spinal Surgery

Spinal Procedures

Lumbar Degenerative Disease

Micro lumbar discectomy and laminectomy, using the operating microscope or endoscope.

Spondylolisthesis Correction

Pedicle screw fixation with posterior (PLIF) or anterior (ALIF) lumbar instrumentation and fusion.

Cervical Spine

Anterior cervical discectomy, laminectomy, laminoplasty, corpectomy with instrumentation and lateral mass fixation.

Thoracic Disc Disease

Laminectomy and discectomy via complex approaches around the heart and lungs.

Spinal Tumours

Intramedullary tumours (glioma, ependymoma) and intradural extramedullary tumours, handled with precision.

Spinal Infections

Surgery for tuberculous and pyogenic spinal infection, followed by appropriate chemotherapy.

Other Procedures

Beyond Cranium & Spine

✓Stereotactic biopsy, abscess/cyst drainage and reservoir placement
✓Cardiogenic intracranial abscesses — frequent given the large cardiac department
✓Otogenic and other intracranial infections
✓Peripheral nerve surgery — carpal tunnel release, ulnar nerve release
