Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery in BMHRC in the year 2005 stands at a threshold. It has become a recognized National centre of excellence in endoscopic and complex spine surgery. All subspecialties of neurosurgery are performed here. We treat head injuries at par with best centers in the World. We have 80% facial nerve preservation rates in acoustics. Survival of our patients with malignant gliomas exceeds that in international literature. We regularly perform vascular surgeries. Our Morbidity and Mortality data is available for peer review and is comparable to the standards. Orthopaedic, ENT and neurosurgeons have expresses desire to work as observer here. We aim at increasing our operative load from 400 cases/year to more than 1000 cases/year in next 3-5 years.

We require the following infrastructure neuronavigation system, intraoperative MRI and Gamma knife to be at par with standard neurosurgery department in India. We have severe shortage of staff , Medical Council of India recognition and M.Ch. courses can solve this perennial problem and spur our growth. Till present our journey has been very fruitful; and being at threshold, the future will depend on administration's vision for the organization and departments.
