When surgical intervention is required, your safety and absolute peace of mind are his top priorities. Dr. Ioannou Giannis applies a meticulous, perfectionist standard to both minimally invasive spine surgeries and intricate brain microsurgery. The practice ensures that incisions remain as small as possible, minimising trauma and paving the way for a smooth, swift recovery so you can feel better quickly.

Brain Surgeries

Εγκεφαλικές επεμβάσεις

While this information can help you understand your health, only a doctor can provide an accurate, final diagnosis.

  • Decompressive Craniectomy (Αποσυμπιεστική κρανιεκτομία): Temporarily removing a small piece of the skull bone to allow a swollen brain room to expand safely.

  • Hematoma Removal - TBI (Αφαίρεση αιματώματος - κρανιοεγκεφαλική κάκωση): An urgent surgical procedure to drain accumulated blood clots caused by severe head injuries.

  • Brain Tumor Removal (Αφαίρεση όγκου εγκεφάλου): Highly specialized micro-surgery aimed at safely extracting abnormal tissue masses from the brain.

  • Chronic Subdural Hematoma Evacuation (Αφαίρεση χρονίου υποσκληριδίου αιματώματος): A gentle, low-pressure rinsing technique to clear old, pooled blood away from the brain's surface.

  • Brain Valve / Shunt Insertion (Βαλβίδα εγκεφάλου): Implanting a tiny, hidden drainage tube to route excess fluid away from the brain and safely into the abdomen.

  • Cerebral Hemorrhage Surgery (Χειρουργείο για την εγκεφαλική αιμορραγία): A precise procedure designed to stop internal brain bleeding and relieve dangerous pressure buildup.

  • Stereotactic Biopsy (Στερεοτακτική βιοψία): Utilizing advanced 3D computer scans to guide a needle with millimetric precision for a tiny tissue sample.

Spinal Surgeries

Χειρουργικές επεμβάσεις στη σπονδυλική στήλη

  • Lower Back Surgery (Χειρουργείο στη μέση): Surgical procedures targeting lumbar spine issues to resolve leg and back pain.

  • Anterior Cervical Neck Surgery (Χειρουργείο στον αυχένα - πρόσθια προσπέλαση): Accessing the neck spine from the front to safely relieve pressure on nerves or the spinal cord.

  • Cervical Microdiscectomy and Fusion (Αυχενική μικροδισκεκτομή και σπονδυλοδεσία): Extracting a damaged neck disc under a microscope, followed by stabilizing the vertebrae.

  • Total Cervical Disc Replacement (Ολική αντικατάσταση δίσκου στον αυχένα / δισκοπλαστική): Swapping a worn-out neck disc with an advanced, flexible artificial joint to preserve natural movement.

  • Cervical Laminectomy (Αυχενική πεταλεκτομή): Removing the back part of a vertebra in the neck to give a crowded spinal cord immediate breathing room.

  • Spinal Tumor Removal (Αφαίρεση όγκου σπονδυλικής στήλης): Complex microsurgery focused on carefully teasing tumors away from delicate spinal cord tracts.

  • Lumbar Microdiscectomy (Οσφυϊκή μικροδισκεκτομή): A classic minimally invasive procedure removing herniated lower back disc fragments using tiny cuts.

  • Lumbar Laminectomy (Οσφυϊκή πεταλεκτομή): Easing lower back nerve squeezing by cutting away bone spurs or compressed vertebral arches.

  • Lumbar Spinal Fusion / Spondylodesia (Οσφυϊκή σπονδυλοδεσία): Joining weak lower back vertebrae permanently together with small screws to end painful instability.

  • Baclofen Pump Implantation (Τοποθέτηση αντλίας έγχυσης μπακλοφαίνης): Placing a small, programmable device under the skin that slowly delivers medication to soothe severe muscle spasms.

  • Spinal Injections (Ενέσεις / εγχύσεις στη σπονδυλική στήλη): Target-guided therapeutic medicine injected directly around irritated spine nerves to alleviate chronic inflammation.

Peripheral Nerve Surgeries

Χειρουργικές επεμβάσεις στα περιφερικά νεύρα

  • Median Nerve Decompression (Αποσυμπίεση μέσου νεύρου): Relieving painful pressure inside the wrist to instantly resolve carpal tunnel syndrome numbness.

  • Ulnar Nerve Decompression (Αποσυμπίεση ωλενίου νεύρου): Freeing a trapped nerve at the elbow joint to restore comfort and strength to your hand.
