Functional neurosurgery
Functional neurosurgery (neuromodulation) is a relatively new area of medicine. The essence of the method is that a device is implanted under the skin of a patient with neurological pathologies.
By controlling this device, doctors achieve a therapeutic effect by changing the activity of the patient’s central and peripheral nervous systems . Such a patient has his own control panel with buttons. At first, the person is treated with conservative methods, and only if the treatment does not give results, the treating neurosurgeon determines the indications for neuromodulation surgery.
Operation
Using minimally invasive surgery, a device is implanted under the patient’s skin, which will have a corrective effect on certain brain structures affected by the pathological process.

Application
Neurostimulation is indicated:
- with muscle tone disorders,
- voluntary movements and postures of various etiologies (parkinsonism, essential tremor, muscular dystonia, cerebral palsy, hyperkinesis and spastic syndromes),
- severe chronic pain syndromes ,
- neuralgia of the trigeminal and other cranial nerves
- and a number of other diseases.
