This article explains how it works, which conditions it treats and what patients can expect. Transsphenoidal surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that enables surgeons to remove certain tumours located at the base of the brain. The term 'transsphenoidal' means "through the sphenoid sinus," which is the air-filled space behind the nose that provides access to the pituitary gland and nearby structures. Specialists most frequently utilise transsphenoidal surgery to treat pituitary tumours. Because the surgical team accesses the tumour via the nasal passages rather than through the skull, this method often shortens recovery time and prevents visible scarring. Consultants recommend transsphenoidal surgery when a tumour affects hormone levels, vision, or surrounding structures. The pituitary gland produces many vital hormones. When a tumour develops, it may cause the gland to produce either too many or too few hormones. Patients may experience symptoms such as headaches, visual disturbances, fatigue, or changes in weight and mood. In these cases, transsphenoidal surgery can remove the tumour and help restore balance. Specialists use transsphenoidal surgery to treat several conditions affecting the pituitary gland and skull base. These include: Your consultant will assess your imaging, hormone levels and overall health before recommending transsphenoidal surgery. Transsphenoidal surgery involves a collaborative approach between a neurosurgeon and an ear, nose and throat specialist. The ENT surgeon prepares the nasal passage to enable safe access to the sphenoid sinus. Using an endoscope or microscope, the team carefully guides their instruments to the tumour. The surgeon removes the tumour via the nasal cavity without opening the skull. This method minimises trauma to the surrounding tissue and offers a more direct route to the affected area. Because transsphenoidal surgery is highly specialised, surgeons rely on detailed imaging guidance to ensure accuracy and safety throughout the procedure. After transsphenoidal surgery, patients typically stay in the hospital for monitoring. The medical team carefully observes hormone levels and neurological function. Most patients experience nasal congestion or mild discomfort during the early recovery phase. Consultants provide clear advice on activity levels and wound care. Patients should avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activities during the first few weeks. Follow-up appointments enable the team to track hormone levels and confirm successful tumour removal. In many cases, patients notice improvement in symptoms once hormone levels stabilise. However, recovery times vary depending on tumour type and individual health. Specialist teams perform this procedure regularly. As with all surgery, there are risks, but consultants will discuss them in detail before treatment. Some patients may require hormone replacement after transsphenoidal surgery, depending on how the pituitary gland functions following tumour removal. - [About us](/about-us "About us") - [Consultants](/consultants "Consultants") -

He also gained a first class degree in mathematics and was awarded the Norman Dott Gold Medal by the Royal College of Surgeons in 1999. Outside medicine, he is a national level chess player and previously was in the GB archery team reaching, at his peak, a ranking of 7th in the world and first reserve for the Olympic team. As Clinical Director for Neurosciences at King’s College Hospital, he is responsible for one of the largest departments in United Kingdom. Much of his work centres around the use of multidisciplinary teams to ensure the right patient reaches the right clinician. This is particularly important for spinal disorders when both surgical and non-surgical techniques must be combined to obtain the optimum outcome for the individual. In addition to his expertise in spinal disease, including the management of back, neck and arm pain and sciatica, he specialises in the neurosurgery of epilepsy and movement disorders in both adults and children, with a nationwide as well as international practice for both disorders. Mr Selway’s research work has focused on the delivery and measurement of high quality patient care through multidisciplinary expertise in a variety of diseases as well as in the techniques of neuro-stimulation in dystonia and epilepsy. He has more than 150 publications. - [About us](/about-us "About us") - [Consultants](/consultants "Consultants") - [Professor Keyoumars Ashkan](/professor-keyoumars-ashkan "Professor Keyoumars Ashkan") -

He has a PhD in Biological Sciences from the University of Warwick and extensive research experience in traumatic brain injury. ## Mr Christos Tolias Mr Tolias has vast Neurovascular experience and currently has the largest series of aneurysm surgeries in the UK (NNAP 2017). He specialises in surgery of cerebral aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, cavernomas and dural fistulas and rare conditions like Moya Moya. When he isn’t working Mr Tolias enjoys walking, running and if time allows a trip to the sunshine in Greece! He is one of the few surgeons in the UK who routinely performs cerebral vascular bypasses both in adults and children. He also performed the first ELANA bypass in the UK. Mr Tolias has pioneered the use of bypass techniques in the management of cerebral vasculopathies. He is trained in Gamma Knife and Cyberknife and routinely utilises innovative neuromonitoring technologies in the surgery of complex vascular lesions like arteriovenous malformations. He is one of the few Neurosurgeons nationally who regularly undertakes surgical extirpation of arteriovenous malformations when indicated. His outcomes are part of national databases and remain among the best in his peer group (NNAP 2017). Alongside his subspecialty interest Mr Tolias has an active spinal practice dealing with problems of the cervical and lumbar spine. These can include sciatica, brachalgia, radiculopathies and pain management through both injections and radiofrequency ablation as well as surgical interventions. Mr Tolias is the director of the first and only Royal College of Surgeons of England accredited National Neurovascular Surgical Fellowship based at King’s College Hospital. He has over 60 papers in peer reviewed journals and more than 150 presentations at conferences. He regularly lectures in the UK and worldwide on topics including complex arteriovenous malformations, aneurysms, Gamma Knife and Cyberknife as well as degenerative spine conditions. - [About us](/about-us "About us") -

In January 2017 he was appointed as a Consultant Neurosurgeon at King’s College Hospital. In his spare time outside of work, Mr Vergani loves to spend time with his family, play some football and enjoys playing the saxophone with his children! In addition, Mr Vergani completed a research fellowship in Montpellier, France under the supervision of Professor Hugues Duffau which focused on surgery for tumours in eloquent areas of the brain. He is specialised in the treatment of primary and secondary brain tumours after completing the prestigious neuro-oncology fellowship at King’s College Hospital, London. With a wealth of experience learned in the management of spinal and brain tumours with the use of technical advances, such as neuro-navigation, 5-ALA for the detection of high grade gliomas and minimally invasive approaches, he has also a specialist interest in surgery for tumours in eloquent areas of the brain, using brain mapping, neuromonitoring and awake surgery techniques. He has a well-established spinal practice treating conditions of the cervical and lumbar spine, including sciatica and brachialgia, together with radiculopathies and pain management. Mr Vergani lectures nationally and internationally, predominantly on the topic of brain mapping and surgery in neuro-oncology. He is also a member of the Society of British Neurosurgeons (SBNS). He has published extensively in peer review journals and book chapters. In 2015 he won the prestigious Young Neurosurgeon Award of the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS). Mr Vergani setup the first UK service for non-invasive brain mapping with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) - this is useful for planning surgery in eloquent areas of the brain. - [About us](/about-us "About us") -

A VCR or vertebral compression fracture is a fracture in the bones of the spine (vertebrae), which occurs when the vertebral body (weight-bearing, block-like part at the front of the spine) becomes compressed or squashed. This is most commonly seen in the lumbar spine (lower spine). There are three causes of these fractures, which are: The treatment of a VCR varies depending on the severity and the symptoms. The treatment options start conservatively and progress through to surgery. These include: If these conservative treatments do not have the desired effect or the fracture is causing neural problems, there are surgical options. Often, VCRs are linked to osteoporosis (brittle bones), and so reducing your risk of osteoporosis will help reduce the fracture risk. It is essential to maintain a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, and to exercise regularly, particularly weight-bearing exercises, to build bone strength. Quitting smoking will also help to reduce the risk. *This article is intended to inform and give insight, but not treat, diagnose or replace the advice of a doctor.

This may increase the chance of sustaining a vertebral compression fracture without trauma. The risk of osteoporosis and, therefore, vertebral compression fractures increases in women post-menopause. - **Trauma**: Usually, the force needed to cause a vertebral compression fracture is relatively high. These often occur as a result of a fall from a height, landing feet first or road traffic accidents. - **Pathological**: Fractures occur as a result of pre-existing disease, such as metastatic cancer, but also other conditions, such as osteomyelitis (infection of the bone) or Paget’s disease. - Pain – especially in the lower back. - Numbness, tingling and weakness – this can occur if the bony fragments from the fracture cause compression of the nerves at the fracture level. - Incontinence or urinary retention – this can occur if fracture fragments press on the spinal cord. - Back brace - Rest and ice - Pain relief – including non-steroidal anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxants - Exercise – when signed off by the doctor to prevent further osteoporosis and strengthen the muscles in the back. - **Kyphoplasty**: A kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure which aims to reduce or stop the pain caused by micro-movement in vertebrae, often linked to a fracture. During a kyphoplasty, the spine is accessed from the back through a small keyhole incision, allowing the surgeon to pass a narrow tube. Positioning of the tube is confirmed and guided by X-ray images. The tube creates a pathway from the skin to the damaged vertebral body via the pedicle (part of the vertebra linking the front to the back). The surgeon inserts a special balloon through the tube into the vertebra and gently inflates it. As the balloon inflates, it compresses the soft bone, creating a void inside the vertebra. It may also partially restore the height of the vertebral body. The surgeon removes the balloon and injects a cement-like material into the void via the tube. The cement-like material (polymethylmethacrylate) hardens quickly once injected to stabilise the bone. - **Vertebroplasty**: A vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive procedure which aims to reduce or stop the pain caused by micro-movement in vertebrae, often linked to a fracture. During a vertebroplasty, the spine is accessed from the back through a small keyhole incision, allowing the surgeon to pass a narrow tube. Positioning of the tube is confirmed and guided by X-ray images. The tube creates a pathway from the skin to the damaged vertebral body via the pedicle (part of the vertebra linking the front to the back). The surgeon removes the balloon and injects a cement-like material into the void via the tube.

Radiofrequency ablation can be used to treat back and neck pain and peripheral nerve pain and pelvic pain. Radiofrequency ablation is a procedure which can be used to treat back and neck pain, as well as peripheral nerve pain and pelvic pain. It is minimally invasive, requiring no incision at all, just very fine needles. It is performed under X-ray guidance and works by heating the nerve tissue that sends pain signals, thereby stopping these signals from being transmitted and reducing pain. Radiofrequency ablation is a safe procedure and has minimal risks. It is an effective and, for some, a life-changing procedure that has few complications, and the benefits far outweigh the risks. Here are some of the possible risks: Your consultant will discuss the risks with you in detail before the procedure and will inform you of all the risks, complications and benefits of radiofrequency ablation. First up, a local anaesthetic will be applied to numb the area where you are experiencing pain. A low dose of sedative may be used, but you will be awake during the procedure, and you will not feel any pain. During the procedure, a thin needle is guided by X-ray towards the area of pain. A microelectrode is passed through the needle towards the targeted nerve tissue. The microelectrode will burn the nerve tissue that transmits the pain and destroy the pain signal. The procedure can take 30-45 minutes or longer if there are multiple areas of pain to address. After the procedure, you will be taken to a recovery ward. You will be able to walk after the anaesthetic has worn off. You will be able to go home the same day, but please refrain from driving. A follow-up consultation will be made for you to review the procedure and your symptoms. The pain relief can vary from person to person, as it depends on the location and the severity of the pain. Usually, it lasts from 9 months onwards; sometimes, it can be years. It is effective in 70% of people, and the treatment can be repeated if needed. *This article is intended to inform and give insight, but not treat, diagnose or replace the advice of a doctor.

The London Neurosurgery Partnership regularly shares articles, research, and expert commentary to help patients better understand neurological conditions and available treatments. Spinal cord stimulation for back pain is a treatment option for people living with chronic pain that has not improved with other therapies. This article explains how it works, who it may help and what to expect from treatment. Spine decompression surgery is a procedure that relieves pressure on spinal nerves. This article explains why your consultant may recommend this treatment, how it works and what to expect before and after surgery. Do spinal injections work? There are two types of spinal injections which we use: to treat back pain or to diagnose and treat sciatic pain. How does radiofrequency ablation work? Radiofrequency ablation can be used to treat back and neck pain and peripheral nerve pain and pelvic pain. A vertebral compression fracture is a fracture in the bones of the spine which occurs when the vertebral body becomes compressed or squashed. - [About us](/about-us "About us") - [Consultants](/consultants "Consultants") -

There are two types of spinal injections which we use: to treat back pain or to diagnose and treat sciatic pain. There are two types of spinal injections which we use: the first is to treat back pain, and the second is to diagnose and treat sciatic pain. Often, back pain is linked to the facet joints, which are the small joints between each vertebra that allow the spine to bend, rotate, and move, while also providing stability. When these degenerate or there is mechanical wear and tear, they can cause pain. In the long term, this type of pain is typically treated through exercise, building core strength, physical therapy, as well as yoga and Pilates. However, sometimes the pain can be so severe that patients cannot tolerate these treatments. In these circumstances, facet joint injections can offer pain relief, providing a window of opportunity for patients to complete their treatments. In some cases, the back pain can return rapidly and repeatedly, but the injections continue to provide relief. In these cases, patients can be considered for facet joint denervation. This is a slightly more invasive technique that targets the same area, but with a longer-lasting effect. Injections used to diagnose or treat sciatica are often referred to as perineural injections, nerve root injections, or transforaminal epidural injections. These are given to patients with specific symptoms – pain down one leg linked to irritation of one nerve root, commonly known as sciatic pain (because it is the sciatic nerve which is being compressed). These injections are commonly used for diagnostic purposes if there is any doubt from the MRI scan about which nerve root is responsible for the pain, by injecting the area around the suspected nerve. These injections are also helpful in alleviating severe pain and allowing the patient to complete other treatments, such as physiotherapy, which may work in the long term to treat the sciatic pain. Still, currently the patient is unable to do so due to the pain. Injections are a valuable tool for avoiding open surgery. Still, it is always worth noting that not everyone responds to them, so it is a good idea to discuss all options with your consultant before making a final decision. Spinal epidural injections can, on occasion, be used when multiple nerve roots are involved in the source of the pain. Again, it is essential to discuss this with your consultant. *This article is intended to inform and give insight, but not treat, diagnose or replace the advice of a doctor.

ACDF stands for Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion. To break it down, anterior refers to the front, cervical being the neck region of the spine, discectomy means removing the disc and fusion, joining two bones together. This is fusion surgery after removing the disc from the front of the neck (ACDF). ACDF surgery is usually in relation to radicular pain, which is radiating from the neck, down the arms and into the fingers. It occurs when one or more nerves in the neck are affected by a bulging or herniated disc, causing the disc to compress the nerves and result in pain, weakness, tingling, or numbness in the arms that extends into the fingers. An incision will be made in the front of the neck, and the muscles, trachea (windpipe), oesophagus (food pipe), and any other tissues in front of the spine will be moved to one side, allowing the surgeon to see the spine bones and the discs. The offending level is then identified using X-ray guidance, and the disc at that level is removed – this is the discectomy part of the operation. In place of the disc, a spacer or cage is put in, which is filled with bone graft to encourage bone to grow from the level above to the level below, forming one motion segment – that is, the fusion part of the operation. In terms of recovery, patients typically go home within a couple of days of the operation, and recovery time is usually around four weeks. There may be some stiffness immediately following the operation, but this should ease with regular mobility and exercises prescribed by the physio. Postoperatively, patients will wake up in the recovery area and be taken to the ward, where they will be cared for for a couple of days before returning home. Sometimes, hoarseness, sore throat, or difficulty swallowing may occur in some patients, but these symptoms should not persist for long. Within a few days, the patient should be able to return to daily activities without any strenuous activity. Walking is encouraged, starting with short distances and gradually building up. Using proper lifting techniques, maintaining good posture, and following an appropriate exercise program while keeping a healthy weight will all help with a speedy and successful recovery. As with all surgery, this procedure carries risks, and these should be discussed in detail with your consultant before making a decision. *This article is intended to inform and give insight, but not treat, diagnose or replace the advice of a doctor.
