About Hydrocephalus
Hydrocephalus is a condition in which excess cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) causes the brain to swell. Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF) Shunts can alleviate this condition and other similar conditions by draining the fluid from the brain into the rest of the body. In this procedure, the doctor places a catheter into the brain, a catheter into another part of body, and allows fluid to flow out from the brain. Hydrocephalus patients can also be treated with ventriculostomy, which involves drilling a small hole into the third ventricle in the brain to let fluid drain out of the brain.Dr. Rana Patir

Craniotomy -
Dr. Sandeep was overall an excellent choice, thanks to Lyfboat for recommending him. My wife’s tumor was very large and the surgery was very complicated but the image guided craniotomy surgery was a success and we are very happy. It took over 6 hours for the surgery, but Dr. Surbhi was in touch with the team and kept me informed. After the surgery Dr. Sandeep make us comfortable with detailed information and even when she was in ICU he was in touch with the team to monitor her progress. We are going back to Ethiopia happy and look forward to coming back for the review.
