Surgery

AN OVERVIEW Well, just like any other medical
procedure brain surgery is a medical course of
action that involves the repair of structural
problems of the brain. Some conditions that
require brain surgery are brain stroke, brain
cancer, hydrocephalus, abnormal blood vessels,
blood clots, epilepsy, nerve damage, and more.
Do you know cardiovascular procedures can cause
brain stroke too? CE marked cerebral protection
devices are used to protect the brain during
cardiac procedures. Clearly, brain surgery is a
complicated medical procedure. In fact, the type
of surgery done relies on the condition of the
patient.

Lets talk about some types of brain surgery

• Biopsy
• Craniotomy
• Minimally Invasive Neuroendoscopy

Biopsy
A biopsy is used to remove a tumor or small brain
tissue to examine under a microscope. In this
procedure, a small incision is done in the skull.

Craniotomy
This medical procedure involves creating a hole
and an incision in the scalp to treat the brain.
This is an open brain surgery that is used to
clip off an aneurysm, remove tumors, remove
abnormal tissue, drain blood from infection, and
more.

Minimally Invasive Neuroendoscopy
This is another type of brain surgery in which a
neuroendoscope is used to remove a tumor from the
brain. This is a minimally invasive surgery in
which a small hole is created in the skull to
access the brain for surgery.
