Renowned for its expertise, pioneering treatments, and cutting-edge technology, Acıbadem provides hope to patients worldwide facing complex neurological conditions. With a multidisciplinary approach, the institution ensures comprehensive and individualized care from diagnosis to treatment.
Comprehensive Treatment for Neurological Disorders
Neurological conditions vary widely, from manageable disorders to those requiring intricate surgeries. Some conditions are congenital, while others arise from degenerative processes or unknown causes. At Acıbadem Neurosurgery Clinic, a highly skilled team treats a broad spectrum of neurological diseases, including adult and pediatric brain tumors, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, cerebrovascular disorders such as aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations (AVM), and cerebral palsy. Each treatment plan is meticulously designed and implemented by a multidisciplinary team, ensuring the highest level of care.
Advanced Brain Tumor Treatments
Brain tumors, though rare, pose serious risks. Accounting for 2% of all tumors, they rank as the 10th leading cause of cancer-related deaths. These abnormal growths may originate in the brain or spread from other parts of the body as metastatic tumors.
Surgical resection remains the cornerstone of brain tumor treatment, aiming to remove the tumor while preserving neurological function. For benign tumors, surgery is often curative. However, malignant tumors may require additional therapies such as radiation and chemotherapy. Acıbadem’s neurosurgeons employ state-of-the-art technologies, including neuromonitoring, neuronavigation, and intraoperative MRI, to enhance surgical precision and optimize patient outcomes. With nearly 30 years of expertise, Acıbadem has successfully treated patients with even the most complex brain tumors.
Pioneering Pediatric Neurosurgery
Pediatric neurosurgery is a specialized field with limited experts worldwide. Acıbadem stands out with its dedicated Pediatric Neurosurgery Department, performing over 600 procedures annually for infants, babies, and children from around the globe. Conditions treated include epilepsy, cerebral palsy, brain tumors, and congenital malformations. A collaborative approach integrates specialists from pediatric surgery, orthopedics, pediatric neurology, oncology, radiation oncology, neuroradiology, and physiotherapy to tailor the best treatment strategies for young patients. Post-surgical rehabilitation is also emphasized to optimize recovery and quality of life.
11,000 Patients Successfully Treated with Gamma Knife
Gamma Knife radiosurgery offers a non-invasive alternative for treating brain tumors and AVMs, delivering high-precision radiation to targeted lesions. Acıbadem was among the pioneers in the region, establishing the first Gamma Knife Unit in Türkiye in 1997. Since launching the service in 2006, Acıbadem has continuously upgraded its technology, most recently in 2017. Today, with over 11,000 successful Gamma Knife treatments, the institution remains a leader in non-surgical neurological care.
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson’s Disease
For patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease, where medication no longer controls tremors and muscle stiffness, Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery offers a transformative solution. Acıbadem’s expert neurosurgeons have performed nearly 1,000 DBS procedures, helping patients regain mobility and independence. This surgical intervention significantly improves quality of life, reinforcing Acıbadem’s leadership in Parkinson’s treatment.
