Common Questions Regarding Brain & Spine Surgery

Find clear, evidence-based answers regarding neurosurgical indications, surgical procedures, and post-operative recovery explained by Dr. Dilip S. Kiyawat.

Brain & Cranial Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery is indicated for conditions such as brain tumors, spinal cord injuries, epilepsy, aneurysms, and other disorders affecting the nervous system.

Neurosurgery is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and surgical management of disorders affecting the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves.

Brain tumor removal typically involves craniotomy, where a section of the skull is temporarily removed to access and remove the tumor. Advanced techniques like stereotactic radiosurgery may also be used.

Deep brain stimulation involves implanting electrodes in specific brain regions and connecting them to a pacemaker-like device. It is used to treat conditions like Parkinson's disease and essential tremor.

Cranioplasty is a surgical procedure to repair defects or deformities of the skull. It may involve using synthetic materials or the patient's own bone.

Spine Surgery & Care

Minimally invasive spine surgery involves using small incisions and specialized instruments to perform procedures with less disruption to surrounding tissues. It often results in faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

Spine surgery involves surgical procedures that address conditions affecting the spine, such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, fractures, and deformities.

Spinal fusion involves joining two or more vertebrae to eliminate motion between them. It is often performed to stabilize the spine in cases of degenerative disc disease, spinal instability, or fractures.

A lumbar laminectomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing part of the vertebral bone (lamina) to relieve pressure on the spinal nerves in the lower back.

Laminoplasty is a procedure that involves creating space within the spinal canal by lifting the lamina, a portion of the vertebral bone, without removing it entirely. It is often done to treat spinal stenosis.
