About Endovascular Neurosurgery

Endovascular neurosurgery is a category of minimally invasive procedure that uses medical imaging technology and small incisions to treat aneurysms, strokes, tumors and other brain disorders. Some of these conditions may be untreatable with conventional surgery but can be cared for through endovascular neurosurgery techniques. If you need an endovascular procedure, you are treated in one of our radiology angiographic suites, a specialized operating room. Minimally invasive surgery tends to have fewer complications and requires a shorter hospital stay, which means a quicker recovery.

Benefits

For many people, endovascular neurosurgery can be the difference between declining and thriving, especially if their condition prevents them from doing everyday tasks and enjoying life. For other patients, especially those with a traumatic injury or emergency condition, our endovascular surgeons’ rapid, precise care can be life saving.

Why Choose Us for Your Endovascular Neurosurgery?

When your brain’s blood vessel or brain aneurysm ruptures or develops a “brain bleed,” you want the best possible care from surgeons specially trained in endovascular – or “inside the blood vessel” – neurosurgery. As the only hospital in the region that provides this innovative treatment, we’re trusted by patients throughout a multi-state region for this specialty care. Here are more reasons you should consider:

We’re home to some of the nation’s leading specialists in endovascular neurosurgery. Our specialists – including neurointerventionalists and endovascular neurosurgeons, who use minimally invasive treatments rather than open surgery – get to know you and create a care plan that addresses your health needs and lifestyle. They work as part of a multidisciplinary team alongside critical care doctors, neurologists, neuroradiologists and other clinicians. This collaboration makes all aspects of your care seamless.

Providence Spokane Inland Neurosurgery & Spine Center offers options and hope to patients seeking the most advanced treatments for their neurological conditions. For example, as part of our commitment to your brain health, we are the only program in the region to offer 24/7 brain aneurysm care, meaning you can rest assured knowing that this specialty care is available if and when you need it.

We also offer an innovative radial approach to endovascular neurosurgery. This technique uses the radial artery at the wrist as an access point, instead of the more conventional groin access. The radial approach is associated with a reduced risk of nerve damage, improved patient comfort, less bleeding and a faster recovery. Our leadership in innovation helps us provide better comprehensive neurological care.
