About the Department of Adult and Pediatric Neurosurgery at Medical Park Gebze Hospital
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Neurosurgery at the Medical Park Gebze Hospital offers modern surgical interventions for the treatment of diseases of the nervous system in patients of all age categories. The focus of the doctors is on the patients with brain tumors, cerebral hemorrhages, strokes, vascular pathologies and malformations. The department's surgeons use the very latest surgical techniques in order to ensure the best possible accuracy and the preservation of vital anatomical structures during the surgery. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Süleyman Rüştü Çaylı.
The department strives to provide comprehensive medical care, and therefore the experts in the field of neurology, neuroradiology, neuroanesthesiology and psychiatry are often involved in the therapeutic process.
Cerebrovascular diseases can be treated by neurosurgeons, as well as in collaboration with specialists in interventional neuroradiology. The decision on treatment tactics is made taking into account the severity of the pathology and the general state of the patient's health.
A key focus of the department's doctors is the surgical treatment of spinal diseases. The department successfully performs interventions to treat cervical and lumbar disc herniation, spinal canal stenosis, spinal and spinal cord tumors, spinal deformities, etc.
It is worth noting that the department offers an innovative treatment method – radiosurgery using Gamma Knife. This technique is the only non-invasive option for "surgical" treatment. In other words, the operation is performed without trephination, so that the patient can return to everyday life just a day after the intervention.
The department's range of medical services includes:
- Surgery to remove brain and spinal cord tumors
