Hydrocephalus Treatment
Hydrocephalus, or fluid buildup in the brain, requires prompt intervention to prevent complications. Dr. Gamboa provides comprehensive treatment options, including surgical procedures, to manage hydrocephalus and improve patient outcomes.
Intracranial Hematoma
Intracranial hematomas are one of the many conditions treated by Dr. Gamboa at our clinic. These often require surgical intervention, such as surgical drainage, where a small hole in the skull is used to remove fluid, or a craniotomy, where a section of the skull is opened to remove larger hematomas. The specific type of surgery is determined by the nature and severity of the hematoma.
Brain Tumors
If a tumor is in an accessible location, the surgeon may remove as much as possible or even the entire tumor if it’s small and easily separable from the surrounding brain tissue. However, if the tumor is closely intertwined with this tissue or near sensitive areas of the brain, surgery can be very risky. Our clinic is fully equipped to handle these cases, offering treatment tailored to the tumor’s complexity and each patient’s specific needs.
