What is Neurosurgery?

Neurosurgery is a medical speciality that focuses on the surgical treatment of nervous system disorders. It deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders affecting the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. Neurosurgery procedures are complex and require extensive training and expertise.

Neurosurgeons are highly trained medical professionals who perform complex surgical procedures to correct these conditions.

Who is a Neurosurgeon?

A neurosurgeon is a medical professional who specialises in neurosurgery. They are doctors who diagnose and treat neurological conditions through surgical intervention. To become a neurosurgeon, one must complete an undergraduate degree followed by four years of medical school. After that, they must complete an additional seven years of surgical residency training, with a focus on neurosurgery.

When Should You Consult a Neurosurgeon?

If you are experiencing symptoms related to the nervous system, such as persistent headaches, seizures, or chronic pain, it may be time to consult a neurosurgeon. They can help diagnose and treat conditions such as brain tumours, spinal cord injuries, and degenerative spine disease. If you have been diagnosed with a neurological disorder or have symptoms such as numbness or tingling in the extremities, blurred vision, or difficulty speaking, it is essential to consult with a neurosurgeon. They will perform an evaluation and determine if surgery is necessary for your condition.

What Medical Conditions Do Neurosurgeons Treat?

Neurosurgery doctors treat a variety of medical conditions related to the nervous system. These conditions include:

  • Brain tumours: These can include both benign and malignant tumours that require surgical removal.
  • Spinal cord injuries: Neurosurgeons can help repair spinal cord injuries resulting from trauma or degenerative diseases.
  • Aneurysms: These abnormal bulges in blood vessels can lead to serious complications if not treated by a neurosurgeon.
  • Epilepsy: Neurosurgeons can perform surgeries to treat epilepsy when medication is no more effective.
  • Parkinson's disease: In some cases, neurosurgeons can perform deep brain stimulation surgeries to help alleviate symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
  • Stroke: Neurosurgeons play a crucial role in the treatment of stroke patients by removing clots from blood vessels in the brain.
  • Traumatic brain injury: If you have suffered a traumatic brain injury due to an accident or sports-related injury, a neurosurgeon can help diagnose and treat your injury.
  • Seizures: Neurosurgery can help control seizures in patients with epilepsy by removing the area of the brain responsible for seizure activity.

What Are the Different Types of Procedures Conducted by Neurosurgeons?

Neurosurgery procedures can be complex and vary depending on the condition being treated. Some common procedures include:

  • Brain Surgery: This can involve the removal of a tumour, treatment of an aneurysm or arteriovenous malformation (AVM), or treatment of epilepsy.
  • Spine Surgery: This can involve the treatment of degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, spinal fractures, or spinal cord injuries.
  • Peripheral Nerve Surgery: This can involve the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, or other nerve-related conditions.
  • Craniotomy: This surgical procedure involves opening the skull to remove brain tumours, blood clots, or abnormal blood vessels in the brain.
  • Spinal Fusion: In this procedure, two or more vertebrae are fused together to stabilise the spine and relieve pain.
  • Deep Brain Stimulation: This procedure involves implanting electrodes in the brain to treat Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders.
  • Endovascular Procedures: These procedures involve using catheters and wires to access blood vessels in the brain to treat aneurysms and other vascular conditions.
