Functional Neurosurgery
Pioneering the Future of Functional Neurosurgery
At Universal Hospital, we understand neurological disorders’ profound impact on quality of life. Our dedicated neurosurgeons specialize in Functional Neurosurgery, utilizing cutting-edge techniques to address and alleviate symptoms associated with movement disorders, chronic pain, and other functional neurological conditions.
Understanding Functional Neurosurgery:
Functional Neurosurgery involves surgical procedures designed to alleviate symptoms or improve the quality of life for patients with neurological conditions that may not respond well to medication alone. This specialized field focuses on targeting specific brain or nervous system areas to modulate or regulate neural activity.
Conditions Treated with Functional Neurosurgery:
- Epilepsy: Surgical options such as resective surgery or neuromodulation techniques to control seizures in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy.
- Movement Disorders: Procedures like Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) to manage conditions like Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, and dystonia.
- Chronic Pain: Surgical interventions for conditions such as trigeminal neuralgia, involving procedures like microvascular decompression.
- Psychiatric Disorders: Some severe cases of psychiatric disorders, like obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) or major depression, may be addressed through neuromodulation techniques.
The Functional Neurosurgery Process:
- Comprehensive Evaluation: Our neurosurgeons conduct thorough assessments, often involving advanced imaging and diagnostic tests, to precisely identify the target areas in the brain.
- Patient Consultation: We engage in detailed discussions with patients to understand their symptoms, goals, and expectations, ensuring a personalized treatment plan.
- Surgical Intervention: Procedures are tailored to the individual patient’s needs, often involving the implantation of devices, stimulation electrodes, or other techniques to modulate neural activity.
- Postoperative Care and Follow-up: We provide ongoing support, monitoring patients’ progress, and adjusting treatment plans as necessary for optimal outcomes.
