Cerebrovascular disorders involve abnormalities in the blood vessels that supply the brain. These include strokes (ischemic and hemorrhagic), aneurysms, AVMs, and carotid artery diseases. An ischemic stroke occurs when a blood clot blocks an artery, while a hemorrhagic stroke results from a ruptured vessel. Aneurysms are weakened blood vessels that may burst, causing severe bleeding, whereas AVMs are tangled networks of abnormal vessels prone to rupture. Symptoms vary depending on the condition but can include sudden weakness, facial drooping, loss of vision, severe headaches, seizures, or difficulty speaking. These conditions are emergencies that require rapid diagnosis and specialized treatment. Dr. Vamsi Krishna is highly experienced in recognizing early warning signs and preventing complications through timely intervention. His expertise helps patients not only survive but also recover with minimal neurological damage. By combining medical expertise with compassionate care, he ensures patients receive holistic support throughout their treatment journey.
Accurate and early diagnosis is the cornerstone of successful cerebrovascular treatment. At Yashoda Hospitals, patients benefit from state-of-the-art diagnostic tools such as CT scans, MRI, CT angiography, MR angiography, and digital subtraction angiography (DSA). These imaging techniques provide detailed views of blood vessels, helping detect blockages, aneurysms, or malformations with precision. Rapid evaluation is crucial, especially in stroke cases where “time is brain” — every minute of delay can lead to irreversible brain damage. Alongside imaging, neurological assessments are conducted to evaluate consciousness, reflexes, and motor function. Dr. Vamsi Krishna integrates imaging findings with clinical evaluations to determine whether a patient requires surgical intervention, endovascular treatment, or medical management. His ability to interpret complex neurovascular scans ensures that no subtle detail is missed, enabling accurate and personalized care. With access to advanced technology and 24/7 emergency facilities, patients receive fast, reliable diagnoses that lay the foundation for effective treatment.
Cerebrovascular surgery includes a wide range of procedures aimed at restoring healthy blood flow to the brain and preventing rupture or stroke. For aneurysms, microsurgical clipping or endovascular coiling are performed to seal the weakened vessel and prevent bleeding. AVMs may be treated using microsurgical resection, stereotactic radiosurgery, or endovascular embolization, depending on their size and location. In cases of carotid artery disease or ischemic stroke, bypass surgery or thrombectomy may be required to restore circulation. Dr. Vamsi Krishna is proficient in both open microsurgical and minimally invasive endovascular approaches, tailoring the treatment to the patient’s specific condition. Using advanced microscopes, navigation systems, and precision tools, he ensures safe and effective outcomes. The goal of each procedure is not only to treat the immediate problem but also to reduce the risk of recurrence, protect brain function, and improve overall quality of life for patients.
Recovery after cerebrovascular surgery depends on the severity of the condition and the type of treatment performed. Patients are usually monitored in a neuro-intensive care unit (neuro-ICU) immediately after surgery to track vital signs, brain activity, and neurological function. Once stabilized, rehabilitation becomes essential. Stroke survivors may require physiotherapy to regain mobility, speech therapy for communication, and cognitive exercises to restore memory and focus. For patients treated for aneurysms or AVMs, follow-up imaging is conducted to monitor long-term vessel health. At Yashoda Hospitals, a dedicated team of therapists, psychologists, and rehabilitation specialists works alongside Dr. Vamsi Krishna to provide holistic recovery support. Family education is also emphasized so caregivers can understand the patient’s needs at home. With a structured rehabilitation plan and continuous monitoring, many patients achieve significant improvements in independence and quality of life, even after severe cerebrovascular events.
Choosing the right neurosurgeon for cerebrovascular disorders is vital, as these conditions require exceptional precision and rapid decision-making.
