Craniosynostosis
Craniosynostosis is a term that refers to premature closure of the sutures of a baby's head. The sutures are the softer spots on a baby's head. If this occurs, the head can appear misshapen and, in extreme cases, can cause problems with brain development. |

Craniotomies and craniectomies
These procedures are performed by neurosurgeons to treat surgical problems including hemorrhagic strokes, trauma, brain tumors, and a multitude of neurological disorders. Utilizing the operating microscope during these delicate procedures allows safe, precise, and less invasive approaches to complex and life-threatening neurosurgical disorders. |
