1. Trauma-Head and Spinal Injuries
The most common problems dealt by a neurosurgeon are still traumatic brain and spine injuries. With the tremendous progress in vehicles and roads, the severity of brain injuries has increased manifold. At the same time the management has greatly improved and many severe brain injuries can be salvaged and return to live a productive life.
At present, hundreds of Head and spine injuries are admitted under my care every year. Over the last 40 years I have operated more than 5000 cases of trauma. Many severe brain injuries have been successfully salvaged with aggressive and comprehensive medical management. The pattern of management of difficult problems like CSF rhinnorhea has changed over the years to a minimally invasive transnasal endoscopic approach. Spinal Trauma management has also evolved from posterior decompression with fixation by Hart shill rectangle to anterior fusion with implant and bony fusion. I am routinely doing anterior cervical fusion and plating in cranioverterbral junction anomalies are managed by posterior fusion.
“I have operated more then 100+ cases on CVJ anomaly till now”
2. Pituitary Adenomas
Management of these tumors have shown a significant change over the years. To start with I was approaching these tumors transcranially. Now, rarely any tumor needs transcranial approach. By using the minimally invasive transnasal, trans-sphenoid, and endoscopic approach, most pituitary tumors can be very well excised.
Over the last 10 years, I have done 200+ pituitary tumors by this approach with the cooperation of my ENT colleagues.
“I have done 100+ pituitary surgeries till date”
3. Surgery for Brain Tumors
Brain tumors form the bulk of cold neurosurgery. With the development of microsurgical techniques and good quality microscopes, the results have shown tremendous improvements. All types of brain tumors like gliomas meningionmas and acoustic neurinomas are being routinely operated with results comparable to best centers of India. Best possible post operative care decreases the morbidity related to the surgery to a great extent. My attempt has always been to send the patient home with minimum possible deficits in the given situation.
4. Trigeminal Neuralgia
There are many treatment options for this extremely painful condition as exact pathology is not yet known. All procedures have their advantages and disadvantages. At present I am doing Micro Vascular Decompression (MVD) and Radio Frequency Thermocoagulation (RF Lesion) for this condition and I feel that RF lesion is a better option because of minimum side effect and is an OPD procedure
“Till date I have treated more then 250+ patients with this procedure in last 15 years”
5. Stereotactic Surgery
In this era of minimally invasive surgery, neurosurgery has not lagged behind. Especially in view of the eloquent areas and deep seated lesions this surgical procedure is of great importance. I undertook training for it at karolinska Institute Stockholm, Sweden. I have used it in more than 200 cases. Hematoma evacuation, Biopsy of deep seated lesions, aspiration of deep seated cysts and abscesses, brain stem gliomas biopsy are few of the examples.
In fact I have presented “Stereotactic total evacuation and excision of third ventricular colloid cyst’ in the world Federation of Neurological surgeons conference at Morocco 2005 which was well appreciated.
6. Anurysmal Surgery
After my training in Micro Vascular Surgery, which I undertook at NewCastle under Prof. Sengupta in 1996, I started doing clipping of aneurysm and have successfully operated many patients.
7. Spine Surgery
Even now many people think that neurosurgeons deal only with the cranium. In fact, spine surgery is an important part of the surgical skills of any neurosurgeon. I have performed numerous simple and complicated procedures. This includes anterior cervical disc surgery, cervical compressive myelopathy decompression, anterior thoracic spine surgery and inradural, extradural and intrame dullary tumor, CV junction anomaly surgery and lumbar disc surgery. Recent advanced of MISS (Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery) has come to Indore.
At present I am doing Microdiscoidectomy and Endoscopic Discoidectomy for prolapsed lumbar disc which has many advantages over open surgery.
“I have performed more then 4000 spinal procedures”
