There’s a common misconception that neurosurgery is all awake brain surgery and deep brain stimulation. This is a simple video to explain some of the different types of neurosurgery that we do. The terminology is all United Kingdom terminology.
The main types are:
- Degenerative spine
- Complex spine
- Functional
- Paediatric
- Trauma
- Vascular
- Hydrocephalus
- Neuro-oncology
- Skullbase
