A wide range of neurosurgical operations are performed in Turkish clinics, including:

On the brain: removal of brain tumors (including meningiomas, gliomas, metastases), surgery for hydrocephalus, surgical treatment of epilepsy, removal of pituitary cysts and adenomas.
On the spine: correction of scoliosis, treatment of intervertebral disc herniations, stabilization of the spine, treatment of spinal stenosis.
On the peripheral nerves: elimination of carpal tunnel syndrome, treatment of injuries and tumors of the peripheral nerves.
Functional neurosurgical interventions: deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders.
Interventions for hydrocephalus: installation of shunts to drain excess cerebrospinal fluid.

Turkish clinics use the most modern technologies and equipment, including:

Navigation systems: for precise brain and spine surgeries.
Intraoperative MRI and CT: for monitoring surgical results in real time.
Robotic surgical systems: for minimally invasive interventions.
Endoscopic equipment: for performing minimally invasive surgeries through small incisions.
Intraoperative monitoring of the nervous system: to prevent damage during surgical interventions.
Gamma Knife and Cyber ​​Knife: non-invasive radiosurgery methods that are used to treat brain tumors and vascular abnormalities. They allow high doses of radiation to be delivered with millimeter accuracy, which minimizes damage to healthy tissue and increases the effectiveness of treatment.
Neuronavigation: allows surgeons to perform surgeries with high accuracy, using MRI and CT data to create an interactive map of the brain or spine.
Robotic surgery: Robotic surgical systems such as Da Vinci are widely used in Turkey. They allow for minimally invasive neurosurgery, providing high precision and control.
Laser ablation: Laser interstitial thermotherapy (LITT) is used for minimally invasive treatment of brain tumors. Laser ablation allows for the destruction of tumor tissue with minimal impact on healthy brain structures, which is especially important in the treatment of difficult-to-remove tumors.

To receive neurosurgical treatment, you must provide the following documents and data:

Medical history: a detailed description of previous illnesses and surgeries.
Diagnostic results: MRI, CT, PET and other examinations.
Blood tests and other laboratory tests: to assess your general health.
Recommendations from your attending physician: a conclusion and recommendations for treatment.
Personal documents: passport, medical insurance (if any).
Additional documents may be required to accurately assess the patient's condition and develop an individual treatment plan. Leave your phone number, and our consultant will provide a list of the required data based on your situation: from the initial referral and preparation of a treatment plan and travel.

If you need to clarify any points, we will arrange a consultation. Based on the results of document processing and the diagnosis, our specialists will select a clinic and a doctor.

Statistics show a high success rate for brain tumor removal, epilepsy treatment, scoliosis correction and other neurosurgical problems.

1. Overall success rate.
According to the Turkish Ministry of Health, the success rate of neurosurgical operations in the country's leading clinics is about 90-95%. This includes complex procedures such as brain and spinal cord surgeries, tumor removal surgeries, and treatment of vascular pathologies of the brain.

2. Brain tumor removal.
The success rate of benign brain tumor removal surgeries in Turkey reaches 95-98%. In the case of malignant tumors, especially in the early stages, the percentage of successful treatment is also high - about 85-90%, which meets world standards.

3. Minimally invasive neurosurgical methods.
About 70% of all neurosurgical interventions in Turkey are performed using minimally invasive methods, which significantly reduces the risk of complications and speeds up the recovery process. For example, when performing endoscopic operations on the spine, the success rate reaches 92-95%.

4. Treatment of vascular pathologies of the brain.
The success rate of treating aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations of the brain in Turkey is about 90%. Thanks to the use of technologies such as intraoperative angiography and neuronavigation, the risk of complications is minimal.

5. Postoperative recovery.
On average, 85% of patients who have undergone neurosurgery in Turkey fully recover within the first year. The success of rehabilitation largely depends on the quality of postoperative monitoring and recovery programs, which are widely used in Turkish clinics.

 Turkish clinics provide special treatment conditions for children including:

1. Pediatric neurosurgical departments: with equipment and specialists to work with children.
2. A team of experienced pediatric neurosurgeons: with experience in treating congenital and acquired neurosurgical diseases.
3. A family-oriented approach: including parental support and their participation in the treatment process.
4. Individual rehabilitation programs: for accelerated recovery and adaptation of the child.

The treatment process for brain tumors and other complex neurosurgical diseases includes several stages:

Initial consultation: with a neurosurgeon to assess the condition and determine a treatment plan.
Diagnostics: conducting the necessary examinations to accurately assess the problem.
Surgery planning: using navigation systems and 3D modeling.
Surgery: using modern technologies and minimally invasive methods.
Postoperative monitoring and rehabilitation: to ensure full recovery and control of the condition.
These stages help ensure high quality treatment and minimize risks for the patient.

For accurate diagnosis of neurosurgical diseases, Turkish clinics use advanced methods such as:

• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): for detailed visualization of the structure of the brain and spine.
• Computer tomography (CT): to detect abnormalities in bone structures and blood vessels.
• Electroencephalography (EEG): to study the electrical activity of the brain, especially in epilepsy.
• Angiography: to assess the condition of the blood vessels of the brain.
• Positron emission tomography (PET): to diagnose oncological diseases of the brain.
• 3D and 4D neuroimaging: technologies give neurosurgeons the opportunity to study anatomical structures in detail and plan operations with high accuracy.
• Functional MRI (fMRI): to assess the activity of various areas of the brain in real time.
• Positron emission tomography (PET): used to detect the metabolic activity of tumors and assess the spread of malignant processes.
• Intraoperative neuromonitoring: to monitor the function of nerves and important brain structures in real time.
