Neurosurgery Center

Your nervous system controls everything you do: moving, speaking, thinking, and feeling. Disorders of the nervous system can affect multiple aspects of daily life. At Biruni Hospital, our Neurosurgery Department combines highly trained specialists, advanced medical technology, and compassionate care to treat even the most complex brain, spine, and nerve conditions.

The Importance of Neurosurgery

The brain and spinal cord are among the most delicate and vital organs in the human body. Even a small problem can lead to pain, movement difficulties, or serious complications. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent permanent damage and help patients restore functional independence.

Our goal is to provide precise and effective neurosurgical care in a safe and supportive environment.

What Neurosurgery Involves

Neurosurgery, or neurological surgery, is the medical specialty that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, surgical treatment, and rehabilitation of conditions affecting the nervous system.

At Biruni Hospital, we believe neurosurgery should aim to restore quality of life. Our surgeons combine advanced techniques with individualized recovery programs so every patient receives the best possible outcome.

Conditions We Treat

Our team cares for patients with a wide range of neurological conditions, including:

• Brain tumors (benign and malignant)
• Cerebrovascular disorders such as aneurysms and AVMs
• Traumatic brain injuries and hematomas
• Herniated discs and spinal stenosis
• Scoliosis and other spinal deformities
• Nerve compression syndromes such as carpal tunnel
• Epilepsy and seizure disorders
• Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders
• Hydrocephalus and congenital malformations
  

Our Neurosurgical Services

We provide a full range of neurosurgical procedures.

Spinal Surgery

Procedures such as microdiscectomy, laminectomy, and spinal fusion are used to relieve nerve pressure, restore stability, and correct deformities. Many of these surgeries can be performed using minimally invasive techniques for faster recovery.

Functional and Vascular Neurosurgery

We offer deep brain stimulation to manage movement disorders and surgical options for epilepsy. Our team treats aneurysms, vascular malformations, and other blood vessel conditions of the brain using microsurgical and endovascular techniques.

Deep brain stimulation (DBS)

Deep brain stimulation is a surgical procedure where electrodes are implanted in the brain to regulate any abnormal activity.

This procedure is usually used to treat neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor when medications fail to do so.

Brain tumor surgery

Brain tumor surgery mainly focuses on removing any abnormal growths in or around the brain area; the main goal is to eliminate as much of the tumor as possible while preserving vital neurological functions. 

Success of this procedure fully depends on the tumor's type, location, and size.

The doctor will use microsurgical techniques and real-time imaging to enhance precision and safety during the procedure.

What to Expect After Neurosurgery

Short-term Recovery
After surgery, your care team will monitor you closely to ensure a safe and comfortable recovery.

• Close Monitoring: You may stay in the recovery room or intensive care unit for observation.
• Pain Management: Medications such as opioids, anti-inflammatories, or local anesthetics are provided to control pain.
• Early Mobilization: Physical therapists will encourage early mobilization to support recovery.
• Wound Care: The surgical site must be kept clean and dry to avoid infection. Bandages or stitches are removed within a few days, depending on the procedure.

Long-term Recovery
Continued care and follow-up appointments are essential for a successful recovery.

• Follow-up Visits: Regular checkups allow your doctor to monitor healing and adjust your care plan.
• Rehabilitation: Physical, occupational, or speech therapy may be recommended to restore movement, strength, and independence.
• Lifestyle Adjustments: Avoid lifting heavy objects or engaging in intense physical activity until cleared by your doctor.
• Healthy Habits: Quitting smoking and reducing alcohol intake will help your body heal more efficiently.
• Return to Normal Life: Following full recovery, most patients can return to daily activities; however, strenuous activities should only be resumed upon medical clearance.

The Path to Recovery

Neurosurgery is a transformative procedure, demanding careful preparation, precision, and diligent recovery.

With advanced techniques and personalized care, patients are guided toward a successful recovery, helping them regain their health and quality of life with confidence.
