Neuro Surgeries

Neuro Surgeries

Advanced Neurosurgical Care

At RNH Hospital, we specialise in comprehensive brain and nervous system care using cutting-edge technology and precision-driven surgical expertise. Our goal is to protect, preserve, and restore the delicate functions of the brain, spine, and nerves, ensuring every patient receives safe, effective, and compassionate treatment.

The nervous system is the control centre of your body, managing everything from movement and sensation to memory and emotions.
 It’s divided into two key parts:

  • Central Nervous System (CNS): Brain and spinal cord, responsible for processing information and directing responses.
  • Peripheral Nervous System (PNS): Network of nerves branching from the spinal cord, transmitting messages between the body and the brain.

When any part of this intricate system is affected by trauma, tumour, infection, stroke, or degenerative disease, it can lead to loss of movement, sensation, or cognitive function, sometimes even life-threatening emergencies.

Need for Surgery

Neurosurgery is recommended when non-surgical treatments like medications, physiotherapy, or minimally invasive procedures cannot provide relief or control the disease.
 Some common indications include:

  • Persistent or severe headaches due to tumors, aneurysms, or pressure build-up
  • Weakness, numbness, or paralysis caused by nerve compression or injury
  • Seizures or epilepsy not responding to medication
  • Brain or spinal tumors
  • Traumatic brain or spinal injuries
  • Stroke, bleeding, or vascular malformations
  • Hydrocephalus (fluid build-up in the brain)

     

At RNH Hospital, each patient undergoes a detailed evaluation, including clinical examination, neuroimaging (MRI, CT, angiography), and multidisciplinary consultation to determine the safest and most effective treatment plan.

Conditions & Procedures We Treat

Here’s a look at the major Neuro Surgeries performed at R.N.H Hospital, explained simply and clearly:

a) Brain Tumour Surgery
  • Removal of benign or malignant brain tumours with utmost precision
  • Uses neuronavigation, intraoperative monitoring, and microsurgical techniques
  • Goal: Maximum tumour removal with minimal damage to healthy brain tissue
b) Aneurysm & Vascular Surgery
  • Clipping or coiling of brain aneurysms and repair of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs)
  • Prevents life-threatening bleeding or stroke
  • Performed using advanced micro-neurosurgical and endovascular methods
c) Epilepsy Surgery
  • For patients with seizures not controlled by medication
  • Involves removing or isolating the seizure focus area in the brain
  • Helps achieve long-term seizure control and improves quality of life
d) Hydrocephalus & Shunt Procedures
  • Treatment for excessive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) build-up in the brain
  • Placement of a ventriculo-peritoneal (VP) shunt or endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV)
  • Relieves pressure, improves symptoms like headache, nausea, or imbalance
e) Skull Base Surgery
  • For complex tumours or lesions at the base of the skull (e.g., pituitary tumours, meningiomas)
  • Performed through minimally invasive endoscopic approaches via the nose or small incisions
  • Preserves vital nerves and brain structures
f) Trauma & Emergency Neurosurgery
  • For patients with head injury, brain haemorrhage, or spinal trauma
  • Immediate surgical decompression or clot removal to save life and function
  • 24×7 emergency neurosurgical support available
g) Pediatric Neurosurgery
  • Specialised care for children with congenital brain/spine disorders (e.g., spina bifida, craniosynostosis, hydrocephalus)
  • Focus on long-term neurological development and minimal invasiveness
h) Functional & Movement Disorder Surgery
  • Includes Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, and tremors
  • Improves motor control, reduces medication dependency, and enhances quality of life
