Conditions & Treatments
Hemivertebrectomy
Hemivertebrectomy is a surgical procedure to correct congenital scoliosis caused by a hemivertebra, which is underdeveloped
Herniated Disc
Herniated discs can occur anywhere in the spinal column. However, they are most common in the cervical (neck) and lumbar (lower back) regions of the spine.
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU)
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is an innovative, non-invasive treatment option for individuals with Essential Tremor, particularly those who have not responded well to medication.
Hydrocephalus Surgery
Hydrocephalus surgery refers to surgical procedures performed to treat hydrocephalus, a condition characterized by the accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain
Instrumentation Removal
Instrumentation removal is a surgical procedure performed to remove hardware or implants that were previously implanted in the spine as part of a spinal fusion or stabilization procedure.
Intracerebral Hemorrhage Repair
When there is bleeding into the brain, it is called an intracerebral hemorrhage or hemorrhagic stroke. Some of the risk factors of developing an intracerebral hemorrhage include high blood pressure, age, history of stroke, alcohol/drug use, etc. Symptoms a patient may exhibit depend on the location of the bleed. Some of the symptoms may include headache, nausea,
Kyphoplasty
Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure to treat the pain caused by a compression fracture or a break in one of your vertebra. It can also help improve mobility when other measures fail to provide relief. The procedure is more likely to be successful if done within two months of a fracture.
Kyphosis (Hump)
In adults, kyphosis can be caused by degenerative disc disease, osteoporosis, compression fractures, injury, certain diseases, tumors or spondylolisthesis (slipping of one vertebra forward on another).
Laminectomy / Laminotomy
A laminotomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to free up compressed nerves in the spinal column. A small part of the vertebral arch is removed to free up compressed nerve roots.
Laminectomy / Laminotomy
A microvascular decompression is a surgical procedure that relieves pain caused by abnormal compression of the trigeminal nerve. A patient may experience pain (usually located at the cheek, forehead, teeth, or jaw) or even facial drooping. This condition, known as trigeminal neuralgia, occurs most often when the trigeminal nerve is being compressed (or pinched) by a nearby artery.
Laminoplasty
Laminoplasty is a surgical treatment that treats spinal problems such as spinal stenosis and cervical myelopathy.
Meningioma Surgery
A meningioma is a tumor involving the meninges of the brain. The meninges is the membrane that covers the brain and spinal cord. Typically, meningiomas are benign and slow growing. Symptoms depend on the location of the tumor, but can include things like visual changes, headaches, memory loss, etc.
Metastatic Brain Tumor Surgery
A metastatic brain tumor is a tumor that originated in another part of the body and migrated to the brain. An MRI is often used to evaluate a tumor that has metastasized (spread from another part of the body). A neurological exam is also performed to evaluate the effects of the tumor. A biopsy may be performed to help evaluate the tumor itself.
Microdiscectomy
A microdiscectomy is a surgical treatment that removes pressure from the spinal nerves produced by a herniated disc in the lumbar spine.
Microvascular Decompression
A microvascular decompression is a surgical procedure that relieves pain caused by abnormal compression of the trigeminal nerve. A patient may experience pain (usually located at the cheek, forehead, teeth, or jaw) or even facial drooping. This condition, known as trigeminal neuralgia, occurs most often when the trigeminal nerve is being compressed (or pinched) by a nearby artery.
