Understanding Skull-Base Surgery

Skull-based surgery involves the treatment of complex conditions affecting the skull base, a critical area where the brain, major blood vessels, and nerves enter and exit the skull. Our experienced surgeons are trained to navigate this challenging region, employing advanced techniques to address various conditions with precision.

Conditions Treated :

  • Brain Tumors: Removal of tumors located at the base of the skull, including pituitary tumors, meningiomas, and chordomas.
  • Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Leaks: Repair of leaks in the membrane surrounding the brain, preventing complications such as meningitis.
  • Skull-Base Fractures: Surgical intervention to repair fractures or injuries to the base of the skull resulting from trauma.
  • Acoustic Neuromas: Removal of non-cancerous tumors affecting the hearing and balance nerves at the base of the skull.
  • Sinus and Nasal Tumors: Management of tumors affecting the sinuses and nasal passages that extend to the skull base.
