ENDOSCOPIC
SURGERY
The endoscope represents a technical advance in neurosurgery
by virtue of its precision for minimally invasive approaches
to the brain, spine and peripheral nerves. Endoscopic procedures
which we are certified to perform and offer to our patients
include:
- Third ventriculostomy "for selected types
of hydrocephalus"
- Intraventricular biopsy "for selected deep
tumors of the brain"
- Endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy "for post-traumatic
RSD pain and hyperhidrosis"
- Endoscopic thoracic spinal biopsy "for diagnosis
of infections and tumors of the spine."
- Endoscopic pedicle fixation of the lumbar spine
"for selected low back pain patients, with single level
spondylolysis and/or spondylolisthesis"
- Endoscopic Carpel tunnel release "for carpal
tunnel syndrome"
- Spinal Epiduroscopy "for direct visualization
of nerve root condition and precision delivery of steroid
in the previously operated lumbar spine."
