The Best Solution for Complex Brain and Spine Disorders

The Department of Neurosurgery at Samsung Medical Center specializes in the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of disorders affecting the brain and spinal cord. Due to the complexity and delicacy of the nervous system, neurosurgery demands unparalleled expertise and precision. We perform approximately 5,000 neurosurgical procedures each year, covering a wide range of conditions such as brain tumors, cerebrovascular diseases, spinal cord disorders, pediatric neurologic diseases, and functional brain disorders. Our team seeks the safest and most effective approach using the latest devices such as a neuronavigation system or neuroendoscopy.
