Yes. Delhi's top hospitals offer minimally invasive discectomy, microdiscectomy, endoscopic spine surgery, and percutaneous procedures. These result in smaller incisions, less pain, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
Delhi's top neurosurgeons use neuronavigation (GPS for the brain), intraoperative MRI at Artemis, and neurophysiological monitoring during surgery to ensure maximum precision and patient safety.
For most brain tumour surgeries, plan for 3 – 5 weeks total — including pre-operative evaluation, surgery, ICU/ward recovery, and neurological assessment before flying. Complex cases may require longer.
Yes. Max Hospital has Gamma Knife radiosurgery for brain tumours, AVMs, and trigeminal neuralgia. This is a non-invasive radiation procedure requiring no general anaesthesia or incision.
All major Delhi hospitals have dedicated neurological physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy for post-surgery rehabilitation. Some patients arrange extended stays at rehabilitation centres in Delhi.
