    Neurosurgical Services at CPMC

    Neurosurgical services include neuro-oncology treatment for brain and spinal tumors, epilepsy surgery, aneurysm (stroke), as well as surgical interventions for back pain, spine disorders and disc diseases.

    Back Pain, Spine, and Disc Diseases

    Spinal conditions are some of the most costly and painful musculoskeletal problems today. We offer comprehensive spine care provided by world-class experts.

    Brain and Spinal Tumors

    Collaborating with radiation oncology specialists, neuro-oncologists use some of the most advanced neuroimaging, stereotactic radiosurgery, and image-guided stereotaxis for treating malignant tumors of the brain and spine.

    Stroke and Brain Aneurysm

    Modern surgical options for treating cerebral aneurysms have vastly improved patient outcomes and recovery. Micro-neurosurgical clipping blocks the blood flow at the aneurysm neck using a tiny titanium clip, while endovascular coil embolization is a newer technique that eliminates aneurysms through tiny microcatheters using platinum microcoils.

    Epilepsy Surgery

    Surgery for treating epilepsy has many different variations; temporal lobe resection, extratemporal cortical resection, and corpus callosal section are techniques that may be recommended for patients who will significantly benefit from the surgery.
