Keyhole & Endoscopic Brain Surgery in Kochi

What is Keyhole Brain Surgery?

Keyhole neurosurgery refers to performing complex brain procedures through very small openings. Using endoscopic and microscopic tools, our neurosurgeon in Kochi can access deep-seated brain regions with minimal disruption.

Conditions Treated:

This advanced technique is ideal for pituitary adenomas, skull base tumors, colloid cysts, and arachnoid cysts. For many patients, these approaches eliminate the need for large incisions or bone removal.

Surgical Process:

In endoscopic transnasal surgery, instruments are inserted through the nostrils to reach the tumor. High-definition cameras and 3D visualization allow surgeons to operate safely while preserving vital brain structures.

Benefits of Keyhole Surgery:

Patients experience less pain, quicker recovery, and minimal scarring. Hospital stays are shorter, and the risk of infection or blood loss is significantly reduced. This makes keyhole surgery in Kochi a preferred option for many brain conditions.

Post-Operative Recovery:

Patients are usually discharged within a few days. Follow-up includes imaging to confirm complete tumor removal and hormone assessment (for pituitary cases). Our team ensures continuity of care through every stage of recovery.

Skull Base Surgery in Kochi

Skull base surgery historically was initially open surgery and required large and very long surgeries. However, now endoscopic approaches have allowed for keyhole surgeryies to reach the base of the brain. This allows for better outcomes and faster recover from surgery.
