Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery is a procedure that diagnoses and treats neurological disorders, injury and disease. Neurological surgery uses invasive techniques to investigate, diagnose and treat the neurological problem. This medical specialty treats any neurological disease which has affected any portion of the brain, peripheral nervous system (PNS), central nervous system (CNS), extra-cranial cerebrovascular system, and spinal cord.

A neurosurgeon is the individuals who have done their specialization course in neurosurgery. They learn how to treat various disorders on CNS, PNS, brain and spinal cord. Some important conditions treated by neurosurgeons are:

1. Meningitis
2. Spinal cord trauma
3. Tumors of the spine, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves
4. Spinal disc hernia
5. Cervical spinal stenosis and other

Some neurosurgery methods are:

1. Microsurgery
2. Stereotaxy
3. Endoscopic surgery
4. Neuroradiology
5. Conventional open surgery

Sub-tracks:

• Pediatric neurosurgery
• Stereotactic neurosurgery/ functional neurosurgery
• Skull base surgery
• Vascular neurosurgery
• Spinal neurosurgery
• Oncological neurosurgery

Market Analysis: Neurosurgery deals with the diagnosis and surgical treatment of the nervous system, which includes the brain, spinal cord, spine, and nerves. The global neurosurgery market is divided based on different product categories. Neurostimulation services, neurointerventional devices, cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) management devices, neurosurgical navigation systems, and other subsegments make up the product type segment. The greatest market for neurosurgery is in North America, followed by Europe. This is attributable to an increase in the number of patients with neurological disorders, the availability of technologically advanced neurosurgery equipment, increased research and development activities, increased public awareness of brain-related diseases, and enhanced regional healthcare infrastructure. In the coming years, Asia's neurosurgery market is predicted to rise at a rapid pace. The global neurosurgery market is expected to develop at a CAGR of 11.71 percent from 2014 to 2019.
