A craniotomy is a surgical procedure where a portion of the skull (bone flap) is temporarily removed to access the brain. It is performed to treat serious neurological conditions such as:
Once the condition is treated, the skull section is replaced and secured. Craniotomies are life-saving and are commonly performed in specialized neurosurgical centers abroad with state-of-the-art infrastructure.
Craniotomy for Trauma
Used to relieve pressure caused by swelling or bleeding after a head injury. It can prevent permanent brain damage and restore function.
Craniotomy for Hemorrhage
Performed to evacuate blood clots or bleeding inside the brain due to stroke, aneurysm rupture, or high-impact trauma.
Craniotomy for Tumor Removal
Used to remove or reduce benign or malignant brain tumors. Depending on the tumor’s location, it may be a full or partial resection.
Our international partner hospitals utilize cutting-edge neurosurgical technologies to maximize precision, minimize risks, and enhance recovery:
1. Neuronavigation Systems
2. Intraoperative MRI (iMRI) and CT
3. Awake Craniotomy with Functional Brain Mapping
4. Minimally Invasive & Endoscopic Craniotomy
Safety is a top priority in all our affiliated hospitals. With modern tools and experienced neurosurgeons, craniotomy procedures are significantly safer today than ever before.
Safety Highlights:
Important Note: Emergency craniotomies (e.g., after trauma or stroke) carry higher risks due to the urgency and severity of the condition, but early surgical intervention significantly improves survival and recovery.
