Scope of Surgery
From Giant Aneurysms to Skull Base Tumours
All types of Neurosurgical problems are treated in the department be it a complex giant aneurysm, an AVM, neuroendoscopic procedures, stereotactic surgery or a multi-compartment large skull base tumor. The department is known for the treatment of aneurysms, AVMs especially posterior circulation & giant aneurysms under low flow state or circulatory arrest and hypothermia. Patients with these problems are referred here from other national institutions for surgery.
