Lateral Skull Base Surgery

Lateral Skull Base Surgery

Lateral skull base surgery is a specialty procedure that is regarded as the frontier of new developments in the treatment of hard-to-reach lesions and tumours. It is used to remove tumours in and around the skull base and ear while striving to preserve the hearing function.

This surgical procedure is a highly demanding one because of the many blood vessels and cranial nerves that reside at the base of the skull. Our sub-specialist surgeon Dr Low Wong Kein is a highly experienced and well-regarded sub-specialist in this area.
