The neurovascular programme specialises in the management of central nervous system vascular disorders such as aneurysms, arterio-venous malformations (AVMs) and occlusive vascular conditions such as carotid artery disease and Moya-Moya disease. Our multidisciplinary team comprises highly trained Neurovascular surgeons, Neuroanaesthetists and Intensivists, Neuroradiologists and experienced nursing staff.
The surgical treatments offered include:
- Clipping of cerebral aneurysms
- Extracranial-intracranial bypass surgery for treatment of giant/complex aneurysms and intracranial occlusive disease
- Minimally invasive intravascular embolisation of aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations
- Stereotactic Radiosurgery to treat inoperable AVMs
Surgical treatments are accomplished using the most advanced technology and surgical techniques which include:
- Microsurgical techniques coupled with intra-operative real time imaging
- Brain mapping and awake craniotomy techniques
- Stereotactic radiosurgery used to treat inoperable AVMs
Our facilities comprise:
- Neurosurgical operating rooms equipped for intra-operative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to allow for microsurgical precision and image-guided stereotaxis
- Specialised neurocritical care units with state-of-the-art monitoring for postoperative care
- Inpatient neurologic rehabilitation and outpatient rehabilitation facilities to assist in post-operative recovery
