Dr. Kamran Aghayev Neurosurgery Clinic: more details about the clinic
Dr. Kamran Aghayev Neurosurgery Clinic is a single-specialty facility in Istanbul's Bakırköy district. It focuses on complex surgical treatments for the brain, spine, and peripheral nerves.
Surgical Expertise and Leadership
Associate Professor Dr. Kamran Aghayev leads the clinic with over 20 years of neurosurgery experience. He completed a Spinal Oncology Clinical Fellowship at the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center in the USA. The medical team includes two specialized doctors.
Dr. Aghayev developed the PURED technique for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS). Since introducing this method in 2015, he has treated more than 200 patients with this approach.
Advanced Spine and Nerve Surgery
The clinic specializes in treating Thoracic Outlet Syndrome using the PURED method. This procedure uses a small 4 cm incision between the scapula and midline. It removes the first rib and decompresses the neurovascular bundle.
Key features of the PURED procedure:
- Works for neurogenic, arterial, and venous forms of TOS
- Patients walk immediately after surgery – no ICU stay needed
- Most patients return to normal life within one month
- No reported infections and no narcotic pain medication required
For spinal conditions, the clinic offers several specialized interventions:
- Endoscopic discectomy – performed under X-ray control with minimal bone removal
- Kyphoplasty – a minimally invasive option for compression fractures with same-day discharge
- Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) – for cervical disc herniation
- Spinal fusion using anterior, posterior, or lateral approaches
When surgery isn't immediately needed, epidural steroid injections (ESI) are available as a conservative option.
Brain and Vascular Neurosurgery
The neurosurgery department manages complex vascular and tumoral brain conditions. Specialists treat arteriovenous malformations (AVM) through surgical, endovascular, or radiation therapy. Treatment plans depend on bleeding risk and whether epilepsy is present.
The clinic also treats various pituitary adenomas:
- Microadenomas (under 1 cm) and macroadenomas
- Hormone-active tumors such as prolactinomas and somatotropinomas
- Hormone-inactive adenomas
Brain aneurysm treatments cover both planned cases and emergency ruptures. Trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm are treated with Microvascular Decompression (MVD).
Diagnostic Capabilities
MRI and CT imaging are available directly at the clinic. These tools support initial diagnosis and post-operative follow-up to monitor recovery.
Services for International Patients
A dedicated care team manages logistics from arrival through treatment completion. Virtual consultations are also available.
International patient services include:
- Online consultations with Dr. Kamran Aghayev for preliminary case review
- Interpreters fluent in English, Russian, Azerbaijani, and Turkish
- Guidance on hospital stay logistics and local arrangements
- Transparent treatment planning with a personalized care team
Most surgical patients stay 2–3 days in hospital after major spine or nerve procedures.
