Neurovascular Surgery

Neurovascular surgery is a subspecialty of neurosurgery focused on treating and managing all vascular diseases and disorders of the brain. Some of these diseases include intracerebral aneurysm and stroke.

At WakeMed, neurovascular surgeons often partner with other specialty physicians for consultation on complex cases as well as during specialized procedures. A few of the minimally invasive procedures performed by neurovascular surgeons at WakeMed include:

• Diagnostic Cerebral Angiography
• Brain Aneurysm Coiling

Typically neurovascular surgery procedures offer better outcomes and a faster recovery for patients as compared to other surgeries.
