About the clinic
Excision of a skull base tumor is a specialized neurosurgical procedure performed at Memorial Şişli Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey. The hospital is known as the first in Turkey to receive JCI accreditation, confirming its adherence to international safety standards. This surgery treats complex growths at the bottom of the skull in both children and adults.
Advanced Surgical Methods
Surgeons at the clinic use microsurgery and endoscopy to remove tumors. These methods help minimize incisions and reduce damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Smaller openings often lead to a faster recovery for the patient. The medical team uses neuronavigation systems to get real-time 3D guidance during the operation. This system acts like a GPS for the brain to increase precision.
Safety and Nerve Protection
Protecting nerve function is a major focus during skull base surgery. The team uses neuromonitoring technology throughout the procedure. This tool helps the surgeons track nerve activity to lower the risk of paralysis after surgery. Because these tumors often sit near the nasal passages or ears, an ear-nose-throat (ENT) specialist works alongside the neurosurgeons. This teamwork helps address the tumor from multiple angles for a better result.
Expert Neurosurgery Team
The neurosurgery department includes several experienced specialists. Prof. Dr. Hakan Hanımoğlu and Prof. Dr. Nezih Özkan lead surgical interventions for complex cases. They work with Doç. Dr. M. Hamit Aytar and Doç. Dr. Serkan Kitiş to manage delicate brain and skull base conditions. The hospital also holds LEED Platinum certification, reflecting a modern and sustainable environment for patient care.
