About the department
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Neurosurgery at the International Neuroscience Institute Hannover performs the full range of surgical interventions to treat diseases of the brain and spinal cord, peripheral nervous system. The department admits both adults and children. The specially trained team of pediatric neurosurgeons takes care of the health of young patients. The key attention in clinical practice is paid to the surgical treatment of oncological diseases of the nervous system, including tumors of the brain, spinal canal, skull base and pituitary gland. The surgical treatment of epilepsy in adults and children, operations for aneurysms and vascular malformations are also among the priority areas of work of the department's neurosurgeons. The interventions are performed in high-tech operating rooms, in compliance with all standards of hygiene and safety. Most surgical procedures are carefully planned using computed tomography and brain mapping systems, which excludes damage to functionally important anatomical structures. Whenever possible, the preference is given to sparing surgical techniques, with surgical access through one or more small incisions. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Dr. h. c. Madjid Samii.
Neurosurgical procedure is the last-line of treatment, and therefore the department's specialists jointly with neurologists and neuroradiologists individually consider the patient's clinical case prior to surgery. Only if all conservative methods are ineffective, the doctors make a choice in favor of surgery. Successful surgical interventions on the brain or spinal cord are possible only with advanced medical equipment. Thus, the department's operating rooms are equipped with state-of-the-art surgical microscopes, neuronavigation and intraoperative systems, thanks to which neurosurgeons can perform the most accurate manipulations without any risks to the patient's health. It should be noted that the department ranks among the leading Neurosurgery Centers in Germany and throughout Europe. The team of neurosurgeons aims to not only cure the patient from pathology, but also preserve the functions of the nervous system, thereby providing the patient with a decent quality of life.
The surgical treatment of brain and spinal cord tumors is of particular interest to the department's team of doctors. Should the patient be diagnosed with cancer, neurosurgeons jointly with oncologists, radiologists, chemotherapists and other specialists develop a step-by-step treatment regimen. As a rule, tumor resection surgery becomes the basis of therapy. An innovative method of stereotactic radiosurgery is often used as well. The essence of the technique is the targeted destruction of tumor cells and metastases by X-rays. The procedure is highly effective and eliminates damage to vital structures and healthy brain tissue. Many surgical procedures to resect brain and spinal cord tumors are minimally invasive, which facilitates rapid postoperative recovery.
The department's neurosurgeons are proud of their outstanding success in the treatment of cerebrovascular diseases. The specialists are focused on the patients with brain aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations of the brain and spinal cord, dural arteriovenous fistulas, carotid stenosis and intracranial vascular stenosis. When treating the above pathologies, the department's neurosurgeons mostly use minimally invasive and endovascular techniques.
The department's team of pediatric neurosurgeons performs surgery to treat brain and spinal cord pathologies in children of different age groups. The most common pathologies of the central nervous system in children include brain and spinal cord tumors, hydrocephalus, arachnoid cysts, congenital malformations, craniosynostosis, malformations of the brain and spine (hemimegalencephaly, focal cortical dysplasia, lipomyelomeningocele, myelomeningocele, spinal lipoma, Chiari malformation). As with adult patients, minimally invasive surgery is always preferred, while classic open surgery is extremely rare.

About hospital
The International Neuroscience Institute Hannover is an advanced highly specialized hospital that provides patients with the diagnostics of diseases of the nervous system and further required treatment. The key areas of competence of the medical facility include neurology, neurosurgery and neuroradiology. In addition, the hospital has laboratories for science experiments and clinical research. The hospital was founded in 1998 by Professor of Neurosurgery Majid Samii and over the time of its clinical activities has gained an impeccable reputation not only in Germany, but also far beyond its borders. The medical complex has unique medical equipment, which allows the specialists to treat diseases of the brain and spinal cord, spine and peripheral nerves using innovative therapeutic methods, many of which are not available in developing countries.
The presence in the hospital of such high-tech devices as a 3 Tesla MRI scanner, a 128-slice CT scanner, a 1.5 Tesla intraoperative MRI scanner, an intraoperative 32-slice CT scanner, a biplane angiography system and intraoperative neuromonitoring systems allows the doctors to accurately determine the nature of pathological changes in the nervous system, as well as reliably monitor each surgical manipulation in order to exclude damage to important functional regions of the brain and spinal cord. The hospital performs innovative stereotactic radiosurgery offered by only a few leading medical centers in the world.
The hospital is also proud of its medical staff, consisting of leading German specialists in neurosurgery, neurology, diagnostic and interventional neuroradiology, internal medicine, oncology, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, orthopedics and other medical disciplines. The work of an interdisciplinary medical team allows the doctors to provide the most effective treatment, taking into account all the clinical features of a particular neurological disorder. The doctors of the medical complex always strive to establish a trusting contact with the patient, devote enough time to personal communication with their patients and always try to support them on their way to recovery. The health of the patient is the main value for the hospital's medical team, and therefore all the doctors' efforts are aimed at achieving complete recovery or long-term remission in case of incurable diseases of the nervous system.
The hospital is notable for its unusual architecture – the shape of a huge building made of glass and metal resembles a human brain. The hospital has a cozy and pleasant atmosphere. It is focused on the patients' comfort, and therefore all diagnostic and therapeutic rooms are designed in such a way that a person does not feel like he is in the hospital. The interior of the hospital is more like a modern comfortable hotel
