Endoscopic & Minimally Invasive Brain Surgery - Dr. Marc Arginteanu, MD

One type of neurosurgical procedure Dr. Marc Arginteanu performs uses an endoscopic, minimally invasive approach to brain surgery. This type of surgery may be indicated for patients with hydrocephalus (water on the brain) and certain types of brain tumors. Years of training and decades of experience have allowed him to offer his brain surgery patients intraoperative safety and a high success rate. There are multiple risks of surgery that are described in the video. Before surgery, CT or MRI data is merged with a computer guidance system. Dr. Arginteanu introduces a camera, the diameter of a pencil, through a dime sized hole in the skull. The initial target is the fluid space in the center of the brain, called the ventricles. He guides the camera between the lateral and third ventricle through the Foramen of Monroe. On one side of the tunnel is a big vein, the Thalamostriate. On the other side of the tunnel is the Fornix, which allows the ability to form new memories. Dr. Arginteanu describes how employing a no room for error approach to brain surgery maximizes the chances of a good outcome and minimizes the chances of a terrible complication. #brain #surgery #minimallyinvasive
