01
Multimodal neuronavigation
Multimodal neuronavigation is an advanced technique used in neurosurgery to plan, guide, and perform surgical procedures with high precision. It combines multiple medical imaging modalities (hence the term "multimodal") and technological tools to help the neurosurgeon navigate within the brain or spinal cord while minimizing damage to healthy tissue.
02
Functional neurosurgery
Functional neurosurgery is a subspecialty of neurosurgery that focuses on the treatment of neurological disorders that affect specific functions of the nervous system, such as movement, perception, pain, or behavior. Its primary goal is to restore or improve these altered functions through precise and often minimally invasive surgical techniques.

03
Brain tumors
Brain tumors are the most common type of solid tumor in children and represent a major cause of childhood cancer mortality.
To date, the primary treatment for these diseases considers maximum safe resection to improve the response to adjuvant treatment with chemotherapy or radiotherapy, depending on the degree of malignancy of the lesion.
Treatment depends on the type of tumor, the location, and the extent of the disease, and includes a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Given the complexity of these conditions, multidisciplinary management is crucial to optimize outcomes.
04
Skull base
Skull base pathologies cause injuries to the bony structures and soft tissues located at the skull base. This area is crucial because it preserve important brain structures, nerves, and blood vessels, meaning injuries there can have serious and potentially life-threatening consequences.
05
Cerebrovascular Disease
Cerebrovascular disease in children, also known as pediatric stroke, is a rare but serious condition that occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, either by a blockage (ischemia) or by bleeding in the brain. Although it is more common in adults, it has specific characteristics, causes, and risk factors in children.
06
Congenital Diseases
Congenital nervous system disorders are conditions present from birth that result from alterations in the development of the nervous system. Some of these disorders may benefit from neurosurgery to improve the patient's quality of life or prevent serious complications.
Neurosurgery for these congenital disorders can be critical in preventing permanent neurological damage, relieving symptoms, and improving the patient's quality of life. The choice of treatment depends on the specific condition, its severity, and the patient's individual characteristics.
07
Hydrocephalus
Hydrocephalus in pediatric patients is characterized by an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the ventricles of the brain, which causes increased intracranial pressure. The main causes in children can be classified as congenital or acquired.
The different treatment modalities depend primarily on the cause and the patient's age. In the neonatal stage, endoscopy and the placement of temporary or permanent cerebrospinal fluid drainage devices may be considered.
Existing treatments for this type of disease can be endoscopic or by placing a cerebrospinal fluid shunt.
08
Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an injury caused by an impact, blow, jolt, or penetration to the head. It can range in severity from a mild injury, such as a concussion, to severe injuries affecting vital brain functions.
In pediatric patients, it has significant relevance due to the particular characteristics of brain development at this stage of life and the possible short- and long-term consequences.
