Overview

At Victor Hospital, our Department of Neuro-Spine & Neurosciences offers advanced, comprehensive care for patients with brain, spine, and nerve-related conditions and is a critical centre for the golden hour for stroke patients. We provide cutting-edge diagnostics, surgical excellence, and round-the-clock neurocritical care for both emergency and elective cases. With top of the line equipment like Neuro-navigator, this department is in the forefront in handling advanced care. This navigator facilitates complex surgeries, including brain biopsies, spine operations, cranial navigation, and treatments for aneurysms and brain tumours. Additionally, it enables frameless biopsies, prone-positioned surgeries, aneurysm and AVM cases, skull base procedures, glioma excision, and paediatric shunt cases. This advanced technology will elevate precision in brain and spine procedures, ensuring enhanced accuracy, faster recovery times and reducing the need for large incisions.
