About the clinic
Pituitary tumor surgery at Central Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, is performed using minimally invasive techniques to treat growths on the master gland. The medical center uses the endoscopic transsphenoidal approach, which avoids external scars and helps patients recover quickly. This private multi-specialty center treats 138,000 patients every year and features three specialized branches across the city.
Advanced Surgical Methods
Surgeons at Central Hospital use the closed surgery method to remove tumors through the nostrils. This technique means the doctor does not need to make any cuts on the face or head. The medical team relies on a neuronavigation system, which acts like a GPS for the brain. This tool helps the surgeon find the exact location of the tumor while protecting healthy brain tissue. During the procedure, neuromonitoring technology tracks brain activity to help lower the risk of a stroke.
Expert Care and Diagnosis
Op. Dr. Ayhan Kara leads the brain and nerve surgery department. As a specialist in this field, Op. Dr. Kara focuses on complex neurosurgical procedures, including pituitary tumor removal. The hospital uses high-resolution 3 Tesla MRI and AI-powered imaging to plan every operation. These tools provide clear pictures of the tumor and the surrounding nerves. This level of detail helps the surgical team create a precise plan before the procedure starts.
Why Choose Central Hospital
Central Hospital has served patients since 1994 and maintains high standards for surgical safety. The facility is equipped with modern tools like the da Vinci robotic system and advanced diagnostic scanners. Patients benefit from a treatment plan that focuses on small incisions and shorter hospital stays. The hospital provides specialized care at its locations in Kozyatağı, Ataşehir, and Etiler.
