Neurological

Neurological procedures address disorders of the nervous system through both surgical and non-surgical methods. A craniotomy involves removing part of the skull to access the brain for treating tumors or aneurysms, while Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) implants electrodes in the brain to alleviate movement disorders like Parkinson’s disease. Spinal fusion surgery joins vertebrae to stabilize the spine and reduce chronic back pain. Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt placement treats hydrocephalus by relieving brain pressure, and carotid endarterectomy removes plaque from the carotid artery to prevent strokes. These procedures aim to restore neurological function, alleviate symptoms, and improve the patient’s quality of life, with recovery times and costs varying by procedure complexity.
