About Neurosurgery

Neurological Surgery

Neurological surgery is a discipline of medicine and a specialty of surgery that provides the operative and nonoperative management (i.e., prevention, diagnosis, evaluation, treatment, critical care, and rehabilitation) of disorders of the central, peripheral, and automatic nervous systems, including their supporting structures and vascular supply; the evaluation and treatment of pathological processes, which modify the function or activity of the nervous system, including the hypophysis; and the operative and nonoperative management of pain.

As such, neurological surgery encompasses treatment of adult and pediatric patients with disorders of the nervous system; disorders of the brain, meninges, and skull and their blood supply, including the extracranial carotid and vertebral arteries; disorders of the pituitary gland; disorders of the spinal cord, meninges, and vertebral column, including those that may require treatment by spinal fusion or instrumentation; and disorders of the cranial and spinal nerves throughout their distribution.
