Overview

Neurosurgery

Advanced planning for brain, spine and functional surgery

The neurosurgery team manages brain tumour, spine, epilepsy, paediatric and cerebrovascular cases with detailed imaging and precision planning. Awake craniotomy, neuronavigation and microscopic techniques are used to prioritise function preservation.

The programme works closely with neurology, radiation oncology, neuro-anaesthesia and rehabilitation. Surgical decisions aim not only to remove disease but to preserve speech, movement and quality of life.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Patient, travel and recovery questions relevant to this department.

Who is a suitable candidate for Neurosurgery?

The Neurosurgery team evaluates diagnosis, disease stage, comorbidities and previous treatments together.

Which technologies are used in this department?

3 Tesla MRI, Gamma Knife and neuronavigation forms the core technical backbone of the department, supported by multidisciplinary planning.

How is recovery planned?

ICU, ward, rehabilitation and home follow-up steps are individualised before the procedure.

Is support available for international patients?

Yes. Pre-assessment, interpreter support, transfers and remote follow-up are coordinated by the international office.

When is awake craniotomy preferred?

It is preferred when tumours are near speech or motor pathways and function preservation is critical.
