Pediatric Neurosurgery

Pediatric neurosurgery is a medical specialty focused on treating brain and nervous system conditions in children. This includes diagnosing and surgically managing issues like brain tumors, congenital anomalies, epilepsy, and head or spinal injuries. Children's nervous systems are different from adults, requiring specialized skills to perform surgeries safely and effectively. The goal is to improve or restore neurological function, relieve pain, and enhance the child's quality of life. Pediatric neurosurgeons work closely with families and a team of specialists to ensure comprehensive care tailored to each child's unique needs.
