Combined Surgery with Neurosurgeons

ENT treatment in Yeshwanthpur, Bangalore

Skull-based tumours

The skull base is the area at the bottom of the skull where the brain and spinal cord meet. Tumours in this area are difficult to treat because they are close to critical structures in the brain. Surgery to remove these tumours is often done in combination with a neurosurgeon. This type of surgery is called combined surgery. Combined surgery for skull base tumours is done in a hospital. The surgery usually takes several hours. During the surgery, the neurosurgeon will work with the surgeon to remove the tumour. The surgeon will then repair any damage to the skull base.

Pituitary tumours

Pituitary tumours are growths that develop in the pituitary gland, located at the brain's base. These tumours can be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Pituitary tumours are usually treated with surgery. If the tumour is small and benign, it can often be removed through a minimally invasive procedure called transsphenoidal surgery. In this procedure, the surgeon accesses the pituitary gland through the nose. For larger tumours or for tumours that have spread to other parts of the brain, a more complex surgery may be necessary. In these cases, the surgeon may work with a neurosurgeon to remove the tumor. After surgery, the pituitary gland may need to be replaced with medication. In some cases, radiation therapy may also be necessary. Book an appointment to have the best treatment.

Optic nerve decompression

In order to decompress the optic nerve, your neurosurgeon will work with an ophthalmologist to remove any pressure on the nerve. This may involve removing part of the bony structure around the nerve, as well as any surrounding tissue that may be compressing it. The goal of the surgery is to relieve the pressure on the nerve and improve your vision.
