Shunting surgery for hydrocephalus is available at Liv Hospital Vadistanbul in Sarıyer/İstanbul, Turkey. The procedure may cost around $10,000 USD and includes 4 nights of hospitalization. The clinic offers a multidisciplinary approach with neurosurgery and neurology consultations.
The surgery involves placing a programmable adjustable shunt to treat hydrocephalus. This device can be adjusted after implantation to meet patient needs. The procedure is recommended for patients with Adams–Hakim syndrome.
Patients need several pre-operative tests before surgery. These include brain MRI, PET-CT scan, and lumbar puncture sessions. The total recommended stay in Turkey is 14 days for monitoring.
Patients should remain in Istanbul for 10 days after discharge. This allows for proper follow-up care. The neurosurgeon will monitor recovery progress during this time.
The clinic provides free airport transfers and accommodation assistance. This can save patients up to $500 USD. Diagnostic tests confirm if shunting is suitable before proceeding with surgery.
