The diagnostic phase ensures a precise treatment plan. It begins with an initial neurosurgery consultation with Dr. Kural. A preoperative examination and anesthesia consultation follow. Diagnostic imaging is performed using a CT (computer tomography) scan. This costs around $550 to $880. All necessary preoperative tests are completed before surgery.
Surgical Treatment Options
The hospital specializes in complex spinal correction surgeries. Dr. Kural performs several advanced techniques in one operation.
- Posterior Segmental Stabilization: This is a spinal fusion surgery. It uses a posterior approach with metal instrumentation. The surgery corrects the spinal curvature. It is performed in a latest-technology operating room.
- Osteotomy: This procedure involves carefully cutting and reshaping bone. It allows for greater correction of severe spinal deformities.
