  What Is Neurosurgery?                      

Neurological surgery is the medical specialty concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of patients with injury to, or diseases of, the brain, spine or peripheral nerves.

A neurological surgeon may provide either surgical or non-surgical care, depending on the nature of the injury or illness.
