Pediatric neurosurgery focuses on problems requiring surgery in the head, spine, or peripheral nerves as these parts of the brain are still forming. This involves surgeries for children before, during, and after birth, as well as during infancy, puberty, adolescence, and adulthood if the disorder persists.

Children’s Specialized Care

Since a child’s developing nervous system is not simply a miniature version of an adult’s, paediatric neurosurgery was developed as an extension of general neurosurgery. Children’s medical problems and illnesses vary significantly from those seen in adults.

We treat the following conditions of Pediatric Neurosurgery :

• Brain tumors
• Cerebral cysts
• Cerebral palsy
• Chiari malformation
• Craniosynostosis
• Hydrocephalus
• Seizures that are uncontrollable
• Spina bifida
• Spinal lipoma
• Spinal tumors
• Syringomyelia
• Tethered spinal cord
• Trauma to nerves or plexus
• Traumatic brain injury
• Traumatic spinal injury
• Vascular malformations

Minimally Invasive Techniques

• Minimally invasive craniosynostosis surgery
• Endoscopic surgeries to cure hydrocephalus without shunts
• Endoscopic brain tumor surgery
