About the clinic
Surgical removal of a brain cyst at Hisar Hospital Intercontinental in Istanbul, Turkey, is performed using minimally invasive techniques.

The hospital holds JCI accreditation and operates a specialized neuro-oncological surgery department that treats over 250,000 patients every year.
Advanced Surgical Methods
The neurosurgery team often performs endoscopic fenestration combined with cranioplasty for arachnoid cysts. This method allows the surgeon to drain the cyst or create openings for fluid flow with smaller incisions. The procedure helps relieve pressure on the brain quickly. Patients receive full anesthesia and all necessary medical materials as part of the surgical plan.

His expertise includes brain and spinal cord tumor surgery as well as pediatric neurosurgery. He manages the surgical planning to help patients recover from complex nerve and brain conditions.
What the Treatment Package Includes
Patients receive a full diagnostic workup before the operation. This includes a brain MRI, a brain CT scan, and full laboratory tests to check the patient's health. The hospital stay usually lasts about 6 days. This time includes 1 night in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and 4 to 5 nights in a standard hospital ward. The package covers several services to make the stay easier:
- Three meals per day for the patient and a companion
- Airport pickup and drop-off
- A translator at the hospital to help with communication
- Doctor consultations and physical examinations
- All pre-operative blood analysis and anesthesia checks
Focus on Patient Care
The hospital maintains a 4.5 rating from over 90 patient reviews. The medical team uses advanced imaging to map the brain before the first incision.
