Choosing NMC As Salama Hospital for Rhizotomy gives patients access to specialist-led nerve procedures, advanced treatment technology, and coordinated postoperative rehabilitation. Established in 2001, the CBAHI accredited hospital is located in Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia and operates 120 beds with modern neurosurgical and neurological infrastructure.

Rhizotomy may be considered when specific nerve pathways are responsible for disabling pain or excessive muscle activity and other treatments have not provided adequate control. The procedure selectively interrupts targeted nerve fibers while attempting to preserve essential neurological function. Depending on the indication, techniques may include selective dorsal rhizotomy or radiofrequency rhizotomy. Preoperative neurological assessment and, when appropriate, diagnostic nerve testing help determine the nerves to be targeted and the most suitable technique.
