Neuroendoscopy

Neuroendoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to treat problems within the brain and spinal cord. It employs a small camera, called an endoscope, which is inserted through tiny openings in the skull or spine. The camera allows surgeons to see inside these areas clearly and perform procedures such as removing tumors, draining fluid, or repairing abnormalities, all without large incisions. This approach typically results in less pain, shorter recovery times, and decreased risk compared to traditional open surgery, making it a valuable option for treating certain neurological conditions.
