Neurosurgery treats problems and diseases related to the brain, spinal cord and nerves. There are many types of neurosurgery. At Providence, we provide every type of neurosurgical service. This includes minimally invasive surgery, which causes less trauma to the body and leads to a quicker recovery.
Some types of neurosurgery are planned well in advance. Others, such as surgery for a traumatic brain injury, are emergency procedures. No matter what kind of neurosurgery you need, you’re in the best hands with Providence.
For many people, neurosurgery can be the difference between declining and thriving. This is especially true if their condition has come to prevent them from doing everyday tasks and enjoying life. For those with an emergency condition like an aneurysm, our rapid, precise care can be lifesaving.
Our neurosurgeons remove brain, spine and pituitary tumors, treat brain and spine trauma, and care for patients with congenital or degenerative spinal conditions. Conditions we treat include:
Depending on your condition and symptoms, your neuroscience specialists may recommend one of the following procedures:
At Providence, we commonly perform minimally invasive surgery for some spine and brain conditions, including some strokes and aneurysms. Minimally invasive procedures require small or no incisions. Instead, specialists use imaging technology, catheters, wires and other tools to treat patients. Minimally invasive procedures cause less harm to body tissue. For many patients, this means less time in the hospital and improved outcomes.
Even some conventional open surgery has become less invasive. New medical technology allows our surgeons to make smaller cuts when they perform certain procedures. This can lead to a better overall recovery for our patients.
