Neuroendoscopy uses a tiny camera and fine instruments to treat conditions deep in the brain through very small openings — and, for pituitary tumours, through the nose with no external cut. For the right patient this can mean less disruption and a smoother recovery.
Conditions treated
- Hydrocephalus (fluid build-up) treated with endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV), often avoiding a permanent shunt.
- Arachnoid cysts, opened (fenestrated) to relieve pressure.
- Pituitary tumours, reached through the nose (transnasal, trans-sphenoidal endoscopy) — no scalp or skull incision.
Why a minimally invasive approach
Smaller openings can mean less tissue disturbance and, for many patients, a faster recovery. Whether it is suitable depends on the exact condition, which is assessed carefully for each patient.
Why Dr. Mazen Agour
Dr. Agour completed a fellowship in neuroendoscopy through the Cairo–Greifswald programme (Germany), with focused training in these minimally invasive techniques.
