Medicana International health group is well-known for its neurosurgery department and is in compliance with international standards (JCI accredited). The hospital has some of the high-power and up-to-date diagnostic technologies available including imaging tests like spinal X-rays, MRI scans, Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans, etc to confirm the pressure of bone issues. The department offers Kyphoplasty surgery with a high success rate and positive outcomes.

The procedure is a common recommendation in case of cancer-damaged spine, certain types of spinal fractures, or osteoporosis (where the bones get weak) increasing the risk of collapse, pain, and hunched posture. During the procedure, the doctor may inject a cement-like material into the vertebrae with the help of a balloon-like device. This procedure is known as Balloon Vertebroplasty. This procedure can restore the height of damaged vertebrae and is also helpful in relieving pain. Doctors may also sometimes order EMG and EEG tests before the procedure. Assoc. Prof. Ali Yılmaz and Eyüp Baykara are some of the highly skilled neurosurgeons in the hospital.
