Kings College Hospital Dubai provides specialized Hemispherectomy with an emphasis on precise seizure-focus management, careful preservation of neurological function, and individualized postoperative rehabilitation. Established in 2019, the JCI accredited hospital is based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates and has 100 beds supported by modern neurosurgical and epilepsy-care facilities.
Hemispherectomy is generally reserved for severe, medication-resistant epilepsy associated with significant abnormalities affecting one side of the brain. Before surgery, a multidisciplinary epilepsy team evaluates seizure patterns, brain structure, neurological function, and developmental status to determine whether the procedure is appropriate. During the operation, the affected hemisphere is disconnected, and in some techniques, portions of abnormal brain tissue are also removed. Long-term follow-up and rehabilitation are important for monitoring seizure control and supporting recovery of motor, cognitive, and functional abilities.
Sharjah, United Arab Emirates
NMC Royal Hospital Sharjah provides specialized Hemispherectomy with an emphasis on precise seizure-focus management, careful preservation of neurological function, and individualized postoperative rehabilitation. Established in 1981, the JCI accredited hospital is based in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates and has 137 beds supported by modern neurosurgical and epilepsy-care facilities.

Choosing Saudi German Hospital for Hemispherectomy gives patients access to specialist-led epilepsy surgery, advanced brain mapping and imaging, and coordinated neurological rehabilitation. Established in 2012, the JCI accredited hospital is located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates and operates 300 beds with modern neurosurgical infrastructure.
Hemispherectomy may be considered when severe epilepsy originates primarily from one cerebral hemisphere and remains uncontrolled despite appropriate medical treatment. The surgeon disconnects the affected hemisphere from the healthy side, with the exact technique determined by the underlying disease and patient's anatomy. The goal is to significantly reduce or stop disabling seizures while minimizing neurological complications. Following surgery, rehabilitation may address mobility, balance, speech, and other functions depending on the patient's needs.
Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
LLH Hospital, Abu Dhabi offers dedicated Hemispherectomy supported by experienced epilepsy surgeons, advanced neuroimaging, and specialized neurophysiology facilities. Established in 2007, the JCI accredited hospital is situated in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and has 750 beds supporting comprehensive epilepsy care.
Hemispherectomy is a major neurosurgical procedure used for selected patients whose seizures originate from a severely diseased or dysfunctional cerebral hemisphere. The procedure separates the affected hemisphere from the healthy hemisphere so that abnormal electrical activity cannot readily propagate. In many cases, the operation involves functional disconnection rather than complete removal of the hemisphere. Careful preoperative evaluation is essential because the potential benefits and neurological risks depend on the underlying brain disorder and the function already supported by each hemisphere.
NMC Royal Hospital, Khalifa City offers dedicated Hemispherectomy supported by experienced epilepsy surgeons, advanced neuroimaging, and specialized neurophysiology facilities. Established in 2017, the JCI accredited hospital is situated in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and has 500 beds supporting comprehensive epilepsy care.

At Iranian Hospital, Hemispherectomy is performed using advanced epilepsy surgery techniques and multidisciplinary neurological assessment. Established in 1970, the accredited hospital in Dubai, United Arab Emirates has 220 beds and provides comprehensive pediatric and adult neurosurgical services.
Hemispherectomy may be recommended for carefully selected patients with debilitating epilepsy that does not respond adequately to anti-seizure medications. Before surgery, specialists perform detailed assessments such as video EEG, MRI, neuropsychological testing, and other functional studies to identify the seizure-producing hemisphere and evaluate the expected neurological outcome. During surgery, the abnormal hemisphere is largely removed or functionally disconnected from the rest of the brain. Postoperative rehabilitation may be required to support movement, speech, and other neurological functions.
