Stroke Related Surgeries in Guwahati
Understanding Stroke and Its Surgical Treatments
A stroke occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted or reduced, causing brain cells to die. Depending on the type and severity, surgical intervention can be critical in minimizing damage and improving recovery.
Ischemic Stroke Surgeries
Ischemic strokes are caused by blood clots blocking brain arteries. Surgical treatments focus on removing or bypassing these blockages to restore blood flow.
Hemorrhagic Stroke Surgeries
Hemorrhagic strokes occur due to bleeding in the brain. Surgery aims to control bleeding, relieve pressure, and repair damaged blood vessels.
Common Stroke Related Surgical Procedures
Carotid Endarterectomy
This procedure involves removing plaque buildup from the carotid arteries in the neck to prevent future strokes and improve blood flow to the brain.
Mechanical Thrombectomy
A minimally invasive surgery where a catheter is used to physically remove a blood clot from a blocked brain artery, often performed within hours of an ischemic stroke.
Aneurysm Clipping and Coiling
For brain aneurysms that can cause hemorrhagic strokes, these surgeries secure the weakened blood vessel to prevent rupture or stop ongoing bleeding.
Decompressive Craniectomy
This surgery relieves pressure in the brain caused by swelling after a severe hemorrhagic stroke, by temporarily removing a portion of the skull.
