Endoscopic Techniques in Neurosurgery

Endoscopic techniques in neurosurgery involve using a thin, flexible tube called an endoscope, which has a camera and light, to access the brain or spine through small openings. This minimally invasive approach allows surgeons to visualize and treat conditions like tumors or fluid buildup without making large incisions. By using advanced imaging and tools, these techniques reduce recovery time, minimize pain, and lower the risk of complications compared to traditional surgery. Overall, endoscopic neurosurgery aims to provide effective treatment while preserving healthy surrounding tissues.
