Craniotomy at The Madras Institute of Orthopedics and Traumatology

At The Madras Institute of Orthopedics and Traumatology, craniotomy is performed using modern neurosurgical techniques and evidence-based practices. The Madras Institute of Orthopedics and Traumatology, founded in 1999, is located in Chennai, India, and has 1000 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.
