Brain surgery refers to a variety of medical operations aimed at correcting structural issues with the brain.

There are several different kinds of brain surgery. The type of treatment depends on the brain area and the condition being treated.

Surgeons can now operate on parts of the brain without making a single incision in or near the head because of advances in medical technology.

In minimally invasive surgery, doctors use a variety of techniques to operate with less damage to the body than with open surgery.

In general, minimally invasive surgery is associated with less pain, shorter hospital stay and fewer complications.

Dr Vamshi Krishna at Care Hospital, Nampally offers minimally invasive surgery using a tubular retractor system that substantially lowers the risk of damaging eloquent tissue during removal of deep-seated lesions.

The procedure can be an option for selected patients with subcortical high-grade glioma, metastatic brain tumors or vascular lesions.

The minimally invasive procedure also uses exoscopic visualization, which provides greater magnification than microscope technology.

There are many types of Minimally Invasive Brain Surgery options available that our expert Neurosurgeon , Dr Vamshi Krishna performs:

Minimally invasive endonasal endoscopic surgery: This type of surgery allows Dr Vamshi Krishna to remove tumors or lesions through your nose and sinuses. It allows them to access parts of your brain without making an incision. The procedure involves the use of an endoscope, which is a telescopic device equipped with lights and a camera so Dr Vamshi Krishna can see where they’re working.

He can use this for tumors on the pituitary gland, tumors on the base of the skull, and tumors growing at the bottom part of the brain.

Minimally invasive neuroendoscopy: Similar to minimally invasive endonasal endoscopic surgery, neuroendoscopy uses endoscopes to remove brain tumors. Dr Vamshi Krishna, our expert neurosurgeon may make small, dime-sized holes in the skull to access parts of your brain during this surgery.

It is generally performed by highly skilled surgeons. Dr Vamshi Krishna is a highly skilled surgeon with extensive experience in Minimally Invasive Neuroendoscopy.

His skilful hands have treated lots of patients. Dr Vamshi Krishna gives you all the necessary information including risk and complications related to the surgery.
