Epilepsy and Parkinson’s disease treatment

‘Nairi’ Medical Center offers advanced neurosurgical treatments using innovative neurostimulation technologies for neurological disorders such as epilepsy and Parkinson’s disease.
At “Nairi” Medical Center, implantation of a vagus nerve stimulator (VNS) is performed, which helps treat epilepsy by preventing the frequency of seizures. VNS, or vagus nerve stimulation, is a small microcomputer implanted on the patient’s vagus nerve in the neck area. No craniotomy is performed, meaning no surgery is done on the brain itself.
In the case of epilepsy, surgery with VNS (vagus nerve stimulation) is considered a first-line surgical treatment.
At “Nairi” Medical Center, Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) with closed loop technology is also applied.
This significantly reduces the manifestations of motor problems in Parkinson’s disease, preventing their progression.
Unlike many methods, the Rishena company’s deep brain stimulator operates in a closed-loop mode, which is based on artificial intelligence. The system itself determines how much stimulation the brain requires for each patient.
