Venous Restoration Surgery (Styloidectomy)

Venous restoration surgery focuses on treating blockages or compression in the veins draining the brain, a critical but often overlooked aspect of neurosurgery. While arterial diseases like aneurysms and AVMs are well understood, vein disorders remain a newer and more specialized field.

Conditions Treated with Venous Restoration Surgery:

  • Intracranial idiopathic hypertension

  • Styloidogenic jugular venous compression syndrome

  • Pulsatile symptoms & venous outflow disorders

Treatment Approaches:

  • Styloidectomy (removal of the styloid process to relieve jugular vein compression)

  • Open surgical techniques for severe cases

  • Endovascular treatments when minimally invasive options are preferred

Venous disorders require a highly specialized approach, and we are among a small group of neurosurgeons pioneering these advanced techniques.
