minimally invasive brain surgery

Minimally Invasive Brain Surgery (MIBS) using keyhole surgery involves performing brain surgery through very small incisions, often referred to as "keyholes." This technique is designed to minimize damage to surrounding tissues, reduce recovery times, and improve overall patient outcomes.

Conditions Treated with Keyhole Brain Surgery

• Brain tumors (e.g., pituitary tumors, meningiomas)
• Aneurysms
• Hydrocephalus
• Epilepsy
• Trigeminal neuralgia
• Skull base tumors
• Vascular malformations

Benefits of Keyhole Brain Surgery:

• Reduced Trauma: Small incisions and precise techniques minimize damage to brain tissue and surrounding structures.
• Shorter Recovery Time: Patients often experience quicker recovery times compared to traditional open brain surgery, allowing them to return to normal activities sooner.
• Less Pain and Discomfort: Smaller incisions typically result in less post-operative pain and discomfort.
• Lower Risk of Complications: The minimally invasive approach reduces the risk of complications such as infections, blood loss, and swelling.
• Minimal Scarring: Smaller incisions lead to less visible scarring, which is aesthetically beneficial for patients.
• Shorter Hospital Stays: Patients generally have shorter hospital stays due to the reduced recovery time, leading to lower healthcare costs and less disruption to their lives.
• High Precision: The use of advanced imaging and navigation techniques allows for high precision during surgery, which can improve outcomes and reduce the risk of damage to critical areas of the brain.
