About the clinic

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery is a specialized procedure for Parkinson's disease and movement disorders at Xiamen Humanity Hospital in Xiamen, China. The hospital follows international JCI standards and features the first intraoperative MRI integrated operating room in the Fujian province. This advanced facility allows the surgical team to perform real-time imaging during the operation to verify precise electrode placement.

Expert Surgical Team

Professor Yao Yi leads the Department of Functional Neurosurgery at Xiamen Humanity Hospital. Prof. Yao Yi is an expert in epilepsy and functional neurosurgery. The team made medical history by performing bilateral deep brain electrode implantation on an 85-day-old infant. This level of experience helps manage complex cases for both children and adults. Specialized nurses provide dedicated care for patients recovering from epilepsy and functional neurosurgery procedures.

Advanced Surgical Technology

The hospital uses high-end tools to assist with electrode targeting and patient safety. Surgeons use the ROSA neurosurgical robot combined with 3D navigation for high precision. These technologies work alongside Siemens Skyra 3.0T intraoperative MRI to reduce risks caused by brain-shift during surgery. The operating rooms also include:

  • Natus 32-channel monitoring for real-time neurophysiological tracking.
  • Brainlab infrared navigation to guide the surgical instruments.
  • Philips FD20 Biplane C-arm in a hybrid operating room setting.
