What Is Functional Neurosurgery?

Functional neurosurgery is done for treating disorders of the brain and nervous system that affect essential functions such as movement, sensation, behaviour, or consciousness. It is a specialised field, unlike traditional neurosurgery, which aims at repairing structural damage and removing tumours.

 

Functional neurosurgery includes restoring or improving the nervous system function to improve the neurological conditions and alleviate the symptoms associated with it.

How Does Functional Neurosurgery Treat Neurological Conditions?

Here are some of the conditions that can be managed with the help of functional surgery.

1. Epilepsy

It is also known as a seizure disorder and is a neurological condition that includes recurring and unprovoked seizures. Surgical procedures for the treatment of the condition involve:

> Temporal lobectomy

Under this surgery, a portion of the temporal lobe of the brain is removed.

> Laser ablation

It is a minimally invasive surgery that treats epilepsy by destroying the brain tissue causing seizures.

> RNS/VNS/DBS implantation

These are surgical implants that are recommended for people with epilepsy who are not responding to medications. The choice of the device depends on the person’s individual needs and seizure characteristics.

2. Movement Disorders

It is a group of neurological conditions that lead to problems with movement, which affect the speed, quality, fluency, and ease of the movement. It can lead to either excess movement or a lack of controlled movement.

> Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)

It is a neurological procedure that includes implanted electrodes and electrical stimulation for treating movement disorders like Parkinson’s disease and dystonia.

3. Pain Management

When conventional therapies do not improve the symptoms and relieve pain, functional neurosurgery offers advanced treatment options that can help manage and reduce pain, which are as follows:

> Intrathecal pumps

Under this surgery, medications are directly delivered to the spinal fluid with the help of devices to provide targeted pain relief.

> Spinal cord stimulators

Spinal cord stimulators, or SCS, are surgical procedures in which electrodes are implanted near the spinal cord, which delivers the electrical impulses to block the pain signals so that they do not reach the brain.

4. Trigeminal Neuralgia

It is a neurological condition that targets the trigeminal nerve in the face, resulting in sudden, severe facial pain on one side of the face, often felt as an electric shock.

> Microvascular decompression (MVD)

It is an open surgical procedure that includes a small incision behind the ear, and the surgeon carefully moves away the blood vessels pressing on the nerve to alleviate the pain and other symptoms related to the condition.

> Gamma knife

It is a non-invasive treatment that is done through precise radiation therapy to target and treat nerve-related conditions such as trigeminal neuralgia. Under this procedure, gamma rays are administered to the affected site, resulting in effective pain relief with minimal recovery time.
