What is an endoscope used for?

The typical endoscope used in neurosurgery features a tiny lens at the end of a small catheter and camera for visualization, a light source for illumination, and one or more channels through which instruments can be inserted for surgical manipulation. Endoscopy is most frequently used to treat hydrocephalus, often eliminating the need for shunting, but endoscopy can also be applied to treat pituitary and intraventricular tumors and lesions. This type of surgery is appealing to patients because incisions are small and cosmetic with minimal skin disruption as compared to more open surgical procedures. As a result, post-operative pain and recovery time is significantly reduced.

What is endovascular surgery?

The term endovascular refers to any medical treatment that accesses the body’s extensive network of blood vessels to treat serious abnormalities throughout the body. Using endovascular technology, UBNS neurosurgeons can access almost any major artery or vein (usually in the upper leg or arm) with a small needle puncture.
