Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery

The Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery is a center of excellence dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of disorders affecting the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, and muscles. The department combines clinical expertise, advanced diagnostic facilities, and modern surgical techniques to provide comprehensive care for patients with neurological and neurosurgical conditions.

It functions under the capable leadership of experienced neurologists and neurosurgeons, supported by a multidisciplinary team that includes neurointensivists, anesthesiologists, rehabilitation specialists, nurses, and technicians. The primary goal is early diagnosis, precise management, and functional recovery of patients with neurological disorders through coordinated medical and surgical interventions.

Facilities and Services

Comprehensive inpatient and outpatient services are available for adults and children with neurological and neurosurgical conditions. The department provides expert care for a wide spectrum of diseases including stroke, epilepsy, movement disorders, neuropathies, demyelinating diseases, neuroinfections, spinal disorders, and neurodegenerative conditions.

The hospital is equipped with advanced diagnostic and therapeutic facilities for accurate evaluation and timely management. Some of the key services include:

  • Dedicated neurology and neurosurgery outpatient clinics
  • 24-hour emergency neuro care for stroke, head injury, and seizures
  • Continuous neurocritical care in well-equipped intensive care units
  • High-resolution MRI, CT scan, diffusion and perfusion imaging, and CT angiography
  • EEG and video-EEG monitoring for seizure evaluation
  • Nerve conduction studies (NCS) and electromyography (EMG) for neuromuscular disorders
  • Lumbar puncture and cerebrospinal fluid analysis facilities
  • Neurovascular imaging for aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, and vascular lesions

Neurosurgical Services

The Department of Neurosurgery offers advanced surgical management for a wide range of cranial and spinal conditions. Modern operating suites are equipped with state-of-the-art microscopes, neuronavigation systems, and intraoperative image guidance.

The surgical spectrum includes:

  • Emergency management of head injuries, intracranial hemorrhage, and spinal trauma
  • Brain tumor surgeries – glioma, meningioma, pituitary adenoma, and acoustic neuroma
  • Aneurysm clipping and endovascular-assisted procedures for vascular lesions
  • Spinal surgeries including laminectomy, discectomy, spinal fixation, and deformity correction
  • Surgery for hydrocephalus, congenital anomalies, and functional neurosurgical procedures for epilepsy and movement disorders
  • Endoscopic neurosurgery for minimally invasive brain and spine lesions

Multidisciplinary Collaboration and Rehabilitation

The department follows a multidisciplinary model integrating medical, surgical, and rehabilitative services. Postoperative rehabilitation is supported through physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech and swallowing therapy, and psychological counseling.

Continuous coordination with Radiology, Intensive Care, and Emergency Services ensures timely interventions in acute neurological and trauma cases. The department also runs awareness programs and stroke prevention clinics as part of community outreach initiatives.

With a perfect blend of advanced technology, skilled professionals, and patient-centered care, the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery stands as a pillar of excellence in delivering comprehensive neuro care across all levels of diagnosis, treatment, and recovery
