SURGERY.
At Precinct Neurosurgery we have expertise in both cranial and spinal surgery, including peripheral nerve and management of trigeminal neuralgia.
CRANIAL
The Precinct Neurosurgery team utilises the latest technologies to achieve the best outcome for their patients. State of the art imaging guidance equipment allows accurate tumour localisation. In the case of tumours in areas of the brain required for motor control of face, arm and leg asleep motor mapping techniques are used to optimise resection without neurological deficit. .
SPINE SURGERY
Whether it be advanced neuro-navigation techniques or robotic guided screw insertion, our team is experienced in a range of techniques.
Dr Kavar has directed the complex spine fellowship program at the Royal Mlebourne Hospital since its inception sharing his knowledge and skills. In addition he regularly is asked to teach fellow surgeons on complex spine approaches.
PAIN SURGERY
Our team have co-authored a chapter on evidence based best management for Trigeminal Neuralgia. Our experience includes not only open surgical decompression via craniotomy but also percutaneous techniques.
