Awake Brain Surgery, also known as Awake Craniotomy, is a specialized neurosurgical procedure performed while the patient is conscious. It is primarily used for removing brain tumors or treating epilepsy when the affected area is close to vital brain regions controlling speech, movement, or vision.
During the procedure, the patient is awakened after initial sedation while the brain is being operated on. The surgical team engages the patient in simple tasks (like speaking, counting, or moving limbs) to ensure critical areas are not damaged.
We specialize in awake brain surgeries using state-of-the-art monitoring and mapping techniques. Our experienced neurosurgical team ensures maximum safety, precision, and patient comfort throughout the procedure.
