Overview of Brain Surgery

Brain surgery, an essential part of neurosurgery, involves the surgical treatment of various conditions in the brain. Brain surgery can be required for head injuries, brain tumours, certain kinds of brain infections, blood vessel abnormalities in the brain such as aneurysms and AVN, strokes, congenital abnormalities involving the head and brain, etc.

Brain surgery is performed for various essential reasons. In a tumour case, it is for the removal of the tumour if possible, to decrease the raised pressure in the brain, or sometimes even just to know the nature of the tumour. In stroke surgery, it is essential to decrease the pressure in the brain or decrease secondary brain damage.

In cases of vascular abnormalities, brain surgery aims to prevent bleeding or rebleeding by removing or segregating the abnormality from circulation (clipping).. Apart from these, very specific conditions may require very specific treatment. One of the primary goals in neurosurgery is to maximise the improvement and minimise the complications.

Surgical techniques can range from traditional microscopic procedures to minimally invasive techniques such as endoscopic surgery or stereotactic surgery, depending on the nature and location of the issue. In paediatric conditions like craniostenostosis, minimally or openly performed surgeries are done to reshape the skull and face.

Post-surgery, patient recovery is individualised, with rehabilitation programs designed to improve brain function. As surgical technology advances, we are committed to ensuring safer procedures and improved efficacy in neurosurgical interventions at our hospital.

FAQs

Brain surgery may be necessary to treat conditions such as brain tumours, aneurysms, epilepsy, brain injuries, or to relieve pressure on the brain caused by excessive fluid buildup.

Brain surgery is generally safe, but like any surgery, it comes with risks. Our expert neurosurgeons at Apollo Hospitals in Jubilee Hills, will discuss these risks with you and the benefits of the procedure. They will make sure that the potential benefits outweigh the risks. Our mortality rate for elective brain surgery is less than 1 %.

Our medical team will provide specific instructions for your surgery. This may include fasting before the procedure, discontinuing certain medications, and ensuring you have a support system for your recovery. It is very important that you have all the information about your previous medical condition, the list of medications you are taking, any allergic reactions to any medication, and any information regarding previous treatment. This is very important to avoid medicine related errors.

Most brain surgeries are performed under general anaesthesia, meaning you will be asleep and feel no pain. In some cases, awake brain surgery is necessary. We have been doing awake surgeries for the last 15 years and our anaesthetic team will explain this to you in detail if it applies.

The duration of brain surgery varies depending on the specific procedure. It can range from a few hours to several hours. Our surgeon will provide you with an estimated time frame.

Recovery can vary, but it typically involves a hospital stay and then a period of rest at home. Our surgeon will give you specific guidelines on post-operative care, medications, and follow-up appointments.

Yes, there can be complications, but they are relatively uncommon. These can include infection, bleeding, or neurological deficit and changes in brain function. Our medical team will monitor you closely to minimise these risks.

The time it takes to return to normal activities varies depending on the surgery and your individual healing process.

Infrequently there may be changes in memory or cognitive function mostly in cases where surgery is done close to that area but this varies. Our surgeon will discuss potential effects specific to your surgery and help you manage them if they occur.

Refrain from driving for 1 year post-cranial surgery, especially if there is a previous history of seizures; the duration can be longer. Your treating doctor will guide you through that in the follow-up.

Yes, brain surgery typically involves an incision, which will leave a scar. However in the vast majority of cases it is kept within the hair so it is not visible. Our surgeon will do their best to make it as inconspicuous as possible.
