Interventional Neurology in Shimoga (also called Endovascular Neurosurgery or Neurointervention) is a minimally invasive technique that uses small catheters, guide wires, and real-time imaging to diagnose and treat vascular problems in the brain and spinal cord.
It allows non-surgical stroke treatment, aneurysm management, and other neurovascular procedures with faster recovery and minimal risk.
Kidney transplantation is done for patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). It's ideal for those on dialysis or nearing kidney failure.
Laparoscopic surgery, also called keyhole surgery, uses small incisions and a camera (laparoscope) to perform procedures. Unlike traditional open surgery, it results in less pain, smaller scars, and faster recovery.
