life to the patients.
            
            Nowadays minimally invasive surgery is a must for a hospital
 as every patient attracts towards it. TIBSS hospital has all the 
facilities for proving minimally invasive surgery to the patients. Our 
discectomy specialists always work hard to serve the patient a pain free
 life and right postures. 
1. Craniotomy and Craniectomy
The Carniotomy is a surgical operation in which a portion of bone is 
temporarily removed from the skull to allow access to the brain so that 
the disease can be tackled surgically. Craniotomies are undertaken for 
brain tumors, injuries, aneurysm, arteriovenous malformations or other 
surgically amenable lesions. These operations are often fraught with 
serious complications but modern neurosurgeons are equipped with skill 
and resources to circumvent these complications. The craniotomy is differentiated from 
Craniectomy in which the removed portion of the skull is not immediately
 replaced and scalp is sutured without the underlying bone. This 
procedure provides space to accommodate brain swelling which may 
otherwise create life-threatening raised pressure inside the skull.
2. Surgery for Head Injuries
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) occurs when the head gets injured in an 
accident due to a fall or an assault. The timely operation may be 
required to save the life or to limit disability by surgically removing 
blood clots or by performing Craniectomy (see above) to allow the 
injured brain to swell without raising potentially lethal pressure 
inside the skull.
3. Surgery for Stroke
There are two main types of stroke are:-
- Ischemic stroke
- Hemorrhagic stroke
Ischemic stroke:- An ischemic stroke occurs when a blood clot prevents blood from flowing 
to the brain and results in death (infarction) of the affected portion 
of the brain. If treatment is made available within three hours for this
 type of stroke, it may be possible in some cases to administer a 
medication to dissolve the clot. In some other cases, procedures are 
carried out to physically remove the offending clot through tiny blood 
vessels of the brain. Sometimes the infarcted brain can rapidly swell 
and cause a dangerous rise in pressure inside the skull. In these cases,
 a decompressive craniectomy may be required urgently as a lifesaving 
procedure.
Hemorrhagic stroke: A hemorrhagic stroke occurs as a result of rupture of a blood vessel in 
the brain and blood collects into the surrounding brain and adjacent 
spaces. Haemorrhagic strokes can occur in three situations. Firstly very
 high blood pressure can cause progressive damage to the small blood 
vessels in the brain and result in bleeding into the brain tissue. 
Secondly, an aneurysm, which is an abnormal ballooned out portion of a 
blood vessel, can rupture and bleed. Thirdly an arteriovenous 
malformation, which is a bunch of abnormally formed blood vessels, can 
cause bleeding. Hemorrhagic stroke trea-tments involve supportive 
treatment to maintain blood pressure and other vital functions, measures
 to stop further bleeding in the brain and reduce the ill effects 
associated with brain bleeding. Surgical procedures include surgical 
clipping or coiling of the ruptured aneurysm. Surgical Excision, 
embolization or Gamma Knife therapy is carried out for arteriovenous 
malformations. Some large clots which are located superficially may 
require surgical evacuation.
