Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery

Removal of tumours through a small incision and bony window.
This enables

• Faster recovery from surgery
• Reduced stay in hospital
• Improved cosmetic result

Minimally Invasive Surgery for Brain Tumours

For Minimally Invasive surgery to be safe and effective, cutting edge technology is required.

I am fortunate to have these at my disposal at RPA:

• Preoperative MRI and functional MRI
• Intraoperative MRI theatre
• Neuronavigation
• Latest design operating microscope
• Neuro endoscope
  
  

Endoscopic Neurosurgery

The use of the endoscope is relatively new in Neurosurgery

Its applications are expanding. I use the endoscope for the following conditions:

• Endoscopic IIIrd Ventriculostomy
• Pituitary Tumours
• Some skull base tumours
• Biopsy and excision of intraventricular tumours
• Bypassing Cysts
