While both doctors treat patients with conditions related to the brain or spine, neurologists prescribe medications and employ non-surgical interventions to manage these conditions. Neurosurgeons, however, perform surgeries when a surgical intervention is necessary. Frequently, the two fields work in tandem in treating patients.
You should see a neurosurgeon for brain or spinal tumors, a slipped disc, chronic back or neck discomfort associated with nerve-related symptoms, traumatic injuries to the head or spinal column, aneurysms, or significant compression of the nerve.
Neurosurgeons commonly do surgery to remove a brain tumor, clip an aneurysm, perform spinal decompression, perform spinal fusion, perform endoscopic surgeries on the skull base, perform deep brain stimulation, and perform surgery to repair or treat traumatic injury.
Not all neurosurgeries carry a high risk. Advancements in technology, minimally invasive approaches, neuronavigation, intraoperative monitoring, and other techniques and technologies allow for safer procedures with quicker recovery.
No. In addition to brain surgery, neurosurgeons perform surgeries to treat the spinal cord, vertebrae, and peripheral nerve injuries or conditions associated with nerves, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. A significant number of surgeries are performed for spinal conditions, mainly for slipped discs, fractures, or deformities.
