Advanced Care by One of the Best Neurosurgeons in Kolkata

Paediatric neurosurgery focuses on diagnosing and treating brain, spine, and nerve disorders in infants, children, and adolescents. These conditions often require highly specialized care because a child’s nervous system is still developing, and timely intervention can make a lifelong difference in growth, learning, and quality of life.

With extensive expertise in complex paediatric brain and spine disorders, Dr. [Name], a renowned and one of the Best Neurosurgeons in Kolkata, offers world-class, compassionate, and child-friendly neurosurgical care.

Common Paediatric Neurosurgical Conditions Treated

Congenital Brain & Spine Disorders

  • Hydrocephalus (excess fluid buildup in the brain)

  • Chiari malformation

  • Spina bifida & myelomeningocele

  • Craniosynostosis (early fusion of skull bones)

Paediatric Brain Tumors

  • Medulloblastoma

  • Gliomas & astrocytomas

  • Craniopharyngioma

  • Ependymoma
    Early detection and precise surgical removal are critical for maximizing neurological outcomes.

Epilepsy Requiring Neurosurgery

  • Focal cortical dysplasia

  • Temporal lobe epilepsy

  • Tumor-related epilepsy
    Advanced surgical options help reduce or eliminate seizures in children with drug-resistant epilepsy.

Paediatric Neurovascular Disorders

  • Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs)

  • Cavernomas

  • Aneurysms (rare in children but require expert management)

Traumatic Brain & Spine Injuries

  • Skull fractures

  • Intracranial hematomas

  • Spinal cord injuries
    Prompt surgical stabilization prevents long-term neurological deficits.

Spine Disorders

  • Scoliosis with spinal cord compression

  • Paediatric spinal tumors

  • Tethered cord syndrome

Signs & Symptoms That May Indicate a Paediatric Neurosurgical Condition

  • Persistent headaches or vomiting

  • Developmental delay or regression

  • Poor balance or abnormal walking

  • Seizures

  • Vision problems

  • Abnormal head size (too large or too small)

  • Weakness or reduced limb movement

  • Back pain with leg weakness or bladder issues

Diagnostic Procedures

MRI Brain & Spine

CT Scan

Ultrasound (for infants)

Electroencephalogram (EEG)
