Minimally Invasive and Endoscopic Neurosurgery
Overview
Minimally invasive and endoscopic neurosurgery techniques are designed to treat complex neurological conditions through smaller incisions, less disruption to surrounding tissues, and with the help of advanced lighted tubes called endoscopes. Endoscopes serve as small microscopes, magnifying critical anatomical structures so the surgeon can easily see the various diseased areas requiring repair, removal, or replacement.
Compared to traditional open surgery, minimally invasive approaches have greatly simplified the treatment of many intracranial (within the brain) ailments, and has reduced surgical complications, shortened hospital stay, lowered infection risk and minimized cosmetic concerns associated with major neurosurgical conditions. These techniques are widely used for treatment of all kinds of conditions affecting the head, neck and spine area, including brain and spine tumors, pituitary tumors, hydrocephalus, herniated discs, skull base tumors, and certain congenital abnormalities.
Diagnosis
Preoperative planning is critical to ensure the success of minimally invasive procedures. The common diagnostic tests typically performed prior to the surgery includes:
- Neurological assessment
- MRI and CT scans of the brain or spine
- Advanced 3D imaging or neuronavigation planning in complex cases
- Endoscopic assessments
Treatment
Minimally invasive and endoscopic neurosurgery focuses on achieving the same surgical goals as conventional open surgery but with reduced trauma to the patient. Some of the benefits of a minimally invasive surgery includes:
- Faster recovery time
- Less blood loss
- Less risk of infection
- Smaller incisions
Commonly Performed Minimally Invasive Neurosurgeries
- Endoscopic surgery: An endoscope has a camera and light at one end which offers surgeons a clear view of the surgical area. It allows them to operate with greater precision.
- Brain Microsurgery: The surgery is used to treat cerebrovascular conditions or tumors using microsurgical instruments. It helps surgeons to work precisely, working around delicate nerves and areas of the brain that control essential functions.
Post-Surgery Care
- Shorter ICU or hospital stay
- Early mobilization and minimal wound care
- Follow-up imaging to confirm surgical success
- Physical therapy, if required for rehabilitation and recovery
- Return to work or routine activities is typically faster compared to open surgery
Conditions Treated
- Pituitary adenomas and other skull base tumors
- Colloid cysts and intraventricular tumors
- Hydrocephalus
- Brain cysts and some vascular malformations
- Herniated lumbar and cervical discs
- Spinal canal stenosis
- Certain craniosynostosis and pediatric anomalies
