Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery Department

Modern neurosurgery now treats conditions that were once considered incurable. This is because our knowledge of the anatomy and function of the brain and spine, as well as the pathophysiology of neurosurgical diseases, has significantly improved in recent years.

Ongoing research has introduced new surgical techniques for the treatment of complex neurosurgical cases. At the same time, modern technology has greatly assisted neurosurgeons in performing highly precise procedures, significantly reducing complications and improving expected outcomes for patients.

Which conditions are treated at the Neurosurgery Department of Therapis General Hospital?

The Neurosurgery Department of Therapis General Hospital, applying all this knowledge and new techniques, and with the support of its state-of-the-art medical equipment, successfully treats the majority of neurosurgical conditions.

Degenerative diseases of the spine (including lumbar stenosis, cervical stenosis, cervical myelopathy, lumbar disc herniation, and cervical disc herniation), malignant tumors of the spinal cord, benign tumors of the spine, nerve root schwannomas, syringomyelia, spasticity, and spinal instability are treated using minimally invasive methods with excellent results and typically a one-day hospital stay (spinal surgery).

Additionally, the Neurosurgery Department treats patients with malignant brain tumors (brain metastases, low-grade gliomas, high-grade gliomas), benign brain tumors (meningiomas), traumatic brain injuries (hematomas, skull fractures, skull base injuries), hydrocephalus, intracranial hypertension, intracranial hypotension, and cerebrospinal fluid leaks (brain surgery). It also manages nerve disorders (peripheral nerve surgery and tendon transfers in nerve injuries) and peripheral nerve entrapment syndromes (such as carpal tunnel syndrome).

5th Generation Hybrid Operating Rooms at Therapis General Hospital

The 5th Generation Hybrid Operating Rooms at Therapis General Hospital are ultra-modern surgical suites that combine a fully equipped operating room with a hemodynamic or radiology lab, allowing the simultaneous performance of conventional open and minimally invasive (endovascular, laparoscopic, robotic) procedures, without the need to move the patient. Their advanced medical infrastructure includes high-resolution imaging systems such as C-ARM, digital angiography, and CT or MRI scanners, enabling real-time guidance. In addition, they are equipped with robotic systems for enhanced precision, specialized endoscopic tools and catheters, as well as complete surgical equipment for all types of procedures, making them ideal for complex and demanding cases. This advanced technology, combined with the specialized medical and nursing staff of Therapis General Hospital, ensures an exemplary level of medical care for all patients.

Advantages of 5th Generation Hybrid Operating Rooms

The main goal of hybrid operating rooms is to improve patient safety and increase the effectiveness of procedures. Their key advantages include:

Reduction of Procedure Time: The surgeon can combine multiple techniques without needing to move the patient, speeding up the process.
Reduced Invasiveness: Complex procedures can be performed using less invasive techniques, resulting in less pain and faster recovery.
Real-Time 3D Imaging: The ability to obtain three-dimensional imaging of organs and vessels provides the surgeon with a more complete and accurate view of the surgical field, further reducing risk and increasing the success rate of the procedure.
Risk Minimization: Immediate imaging and guidance significantly reduce the likelihood of errors.
Management of Complex Conditions: Facilitates the treatment of complex cases requiring a combination of different surgical approaches, such as vascular diseases coexisting with tumors.
