Greeting from Clinical Lecturer Kazuhito Takeuchi.

We aim to achieve less invasive neurosurgery using neuroendoscopy.
We treat a wide range of various diseases ranging from skull base lesions, such as pituitary tumors, tuberculum sellae meningiomas, craniopharyngiomas, and chordomas, to obstructive hydrocephalus.
In the past, surgery mainly used the empty spaces such as nasal cavities and brain ventricles to perform endoscopic surgery, but recently, we have been able to create smaller spaces inside those spaces by using a thin cylinder, and we are starting to apply this method to treat intraparenchymal lesions in areas such as brain parenchyma and brainstem.
In this way, we are seeing a wider range of applications for this treatment, and moving forward, this field has a high potential for further developments.
I believe that neuroendoscopic surgery will become as common as laparoscopic surgery in the future.
This is a technique that I think everyone who wants to become a neurosurgeon should definitely learn, so let's work together and do our best.
