Neurosurgery
Neurosurgery started in Uppsala in 1963. Today, care and research are conducted in all key areas of neurosurgery, including clinical, translational and basic research. Key research platforms include the neurointensive care unit with standardised care and computerised systems for neuromonitoring and collection of high-resolution physiological data, as well as experimental laboratory facilities for studies of acute brain injury. Traumatic brain injury is a Centre of Excellence.
Description of our research
The major neurosurgical fields are:
- Trauma, neurovascular disorders and neurointensive care.
- Skull base surgery and brain tumours.
- Spinal disorders.
- Functional and stereotactic neurosurgery.
- Pediatric neurosurgery.
A multidiseplinary approach is applied including for example collaboration with interventional neuroradiologists, ENT surgeons, reconstructive plastic surgeons and clinical neurophysiologists. A positron emission tomography centre is located in close relation to the department. Ambulance helicopter and jet service is offered by the hospital.
