Craniotomy at Lenmed Ahmed Kathrada Private Hospital

At Lenmed Ahmed Kathrada Private Hospital, craniotomy is performed using modern neurosurgical techniques and evidence-based practices. Lenmed Ahmed Kathrada Private Hospital, founded in 1984, is located in Johannesburg, South Africa, and has 254 beds and both domestic and international patients.

Craniotomy is a surgical process through which a section of the skull is temporarily removed to obtain access to the brain. Craniotomy is useful in managing conditions such as brain tumours, vascular malformations, bleeding, and other neurological disorders. The neurosurgical team assesses the diagnostic imaging, past medical history, and neurologic status of each patient to decide on the best surgical technique.
