The Western Regional Center for Brain & Spine Surgery performs the majority of pediatric neurosurgery in Southern Nevada and neighboring communities in Arizona, Utah and California.
For example, WRCBSS neurosurgeons perform minimally invasive endoscopic brain surgery to treat children with hydrocephalus, thereby eliminating the need for a shunt. Among other pediatric neurological disorders that are treated are Arnold-Chiari Syndrome, craniosynotosis, epilepsy, tethered spinal cord, spasticity and spina bifida.
