Advanced Craniotomy Treatment

Expert Brain Surgery for Tumors, Bleeding, Trauma & Neurological Conditions

If you or your loved one is experiencing serious brain-related symptoms such as severe headaches, seizures, weakness, vision problems, confusion, or sudden neurological changes, a detailed evaluation is essential. In certain cases, a Craniotomy may be the most effective neurosurgical procedure to diagnose, treat, or remove the underlying cause safely.

A Craniotomy is a specialized brain surgery used to access the brain and treat conditions like brain tumors, brain hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, aneurysms (selected cases), infections, and pressure inside the skull.

Under the expert care of Dr. Tamajit Chakrobarty (Neurosurgeon), craniotomy treatment is planned with precision to protect healthy brain tissue, treat the cause effectively, and support safe recovery—helping patients regain better neurological function and quality of life.

Treatment Overview

What is Craniotomy?

Craniotomy is a neurosurgical procedure in which a small part of the skull (called a bone flap) is temporarily removed to provide access to the brain. After the brain condition is treated, the bone flap is usually placed back and secured.

How Craniotomy Treatment Works

Craniotomy works by giving safe surgical access to the brain so the neurosurgeon can treat the root cause of symptoms.

This helps to:

  • Remove tumors, abnormal tissue, or blood clots
  • Control bleeding and reduce life-threatening pressure
  • Relieve compression on brain structures
  • Improve neurological symptoms such as weakness, seizures, or confusion
  • Support long-term brain protection and recovery

Depending on the condition, treatment may involve:
✅ Microsurgical techniques for high precision
✅ Advanced imaging and surgical planning
✅ Emergency intervention when required
✅ Post-surgery monitoring and neurological support

Symptoms That May Indicate You Need Craniotomy

You may require craniotomy evaluation if you experience:

⚠️ In emergency situations like brain bleeding or traumatic brain injury, immediate surgical treatment may be required to save life and reduce long-term damage.

Our Discectomy Treatment

Types of Discectomy Procedures

Your surgery type depends on the disc level, severity, and nerve involvement.

Lumbar Discectomy (Lower Back)

Used for disc herniation in the lumbar spine causing sciatica and lower-limb symptoms.

Cervical Discectomy (Neck)

Used for disc problems in the neck region causing: a. Neck pain, b. Arm pain, c. Weakness or numbness in hands/fingers.

Microdiscectomy (Minimally Invasive Discectomy)

A modern technique done using a smaller incision and specialized equipment, often offering: a. Less muscle damage, b. Reduced post-operative discomfort, c. Faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
