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
neuro-care beyond compare
    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.

    Degenerative Spinal Disorders

    Degenerative Spinal Disorders Degenerative spinal disorders are not generally considered to be a disease, rather a term used for the normal alterations in the spinal discs as one advances with age. Although, degenerative spinal disorders can happen all through the spine, yet it frequently occurs in the discs and other structures like ligaments, joints, etc. and in the lower back area and the neck area. The degenerative changes in the spine lead to the loss of its structure as well as its functional capacity. They are not generally because of a particular injury but because of age. Major reasons like repetitive strains, sprains, and overuse of the back lead to steady degeneration of the spinal structures. Almost everyone above 40 years of age experience this degenerative problem. Since most patients do improve with time and non-surgical treatments, we at TIBSS, the best  spine surgery hospital in Chandigarh , recommend medical procedure initially in degenerative spinal di...

    Types and Risks of Brain Surgery - TIBSS Hospital

     What is brain surgery? The term “ Brain Surgery ” refers to varied medical procedures that involve repairing structural issues within the brain. There are various styles of surgical procedure. the sort used relies on the world of the brain and also the condition being treated. Advances in medical technology have enabled surgeons to work on parts of the brain while not one incision in or close to the pinnacle. Brain surgery could be a vital and sophisticated method. the sort of surgical procedure done depends extremely on the condition being treated. as an example, a brain cardiovascular disease will be repaired employing a tube that’s introduced into associate artery within the groin. If the cardiovascular disease has busted, associate open surgery known as surgical operation could also be used. Surgeons, whereas being as careful and thorough as potential, treat every surgery on a individual basis.  Types of brain surgery There are many differing kinds o...

    Neurosurgery in the period of COVID19 - TIBSS

    As of 15 May 2020, novel coronavirus or COVID-19 has infected approximately 4.45 million people globally reaching the death toll of 302k according to the Worldometers But still, there seems no end to this heinous devastation that has left the entire world in jitters. The publicly declared pandemic has raised significant challenges for everyone everywhere in the world. The entire medical fraternity is fighting against the virus, but it seems that the virus is going to stay for a long time. With imposed lockdowns all over, social distancing in practicing, aborted travel, telemedicine use, and countless other effects, one such effect has been observed in every department of our hospital. If you are a a patient suffering from Neurological issues or had planned for a neuro-surgical intervention, here’s what you need to know about the impact of Covid-19 on neurosurgery.
