Neurosurgery and Spine
At Laredo Medical Center we offer a wide range of specialty services to treat brain, spine and central nervous system disorders and injuries. Whether you need routine care or complex surgery, talented neurological medicine specialists are eager to use the knowledge gained from their years of experience to help you heal.
Our hospital provides advanced imaging technology for care planning, and utilizes neurosurgical surgery technology to provide care, including:
- Non-invasive neurosurgery techniques - Stereotactic radiosurgery uses focused beams of radiation, rather than traditional surgical instruments, to treat brain tumors without an incision.
- Minimally invasive neurosurgery options - Interventional radiology techniques - which use catheters with instruments or medications - such as angioplasty, stenting and embolization can be used to treat tumors, stroke and other cerebrovascular conditions.
- Intraoperative monitoring - Sophisticated monitoring equipment allows surgeons to identify changes in brain, spine and peripheral nerve function before irreversible damage occurs.
We offer the following:
- Minimally invasive and complex spinal surgeries
- Artificial disc replacement surgeries
- Spinal fusions for degenerative diseases of the spine
- Surgical treatment for brain and spinal tumors
- Vertebral compression fracture treatment
- Treatment and care for traumatic brain injuries
