Abnormal connections between blood vessels occurring in the brain or spine that can cause bleeding or stroke symptoms. Dr. Hage offers advanced microsurgical, endovascular and radiosurgery treatments options for these lesions.
Leaky malformation of blood vessels that have a mulberry appearance that can bleed and cause seizures or stroke symptoms. Dr. Hage offers advanced microsurgical and radiosurgery treatments options for these lesions.
A condition causing narrowed brain arteries, leading to strokes. Surgical bypass procedures restore proper blood flow and reduce risks. Dr Hage performs brain bypass surgery using cutting edge flow assisted surgical techniques (FAST).
Precision microsurgery for complex tumors, vascular issues, and nerve disorders at the base of the skull.
Whether benign or cancerous, Dr Hage treats a wide variety of tumor cases such as meningiomas, gliomas, and brain metastases, offering a multifaceted approach involving microsurgery, tumor embolization if needed, and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS)
