Nnamdi Elenwoke

Treatment Focus & Surgical Methods

Elenwoke restores cerebrospinal fluid flow in patients with Chiari syndrome. He uses advanced imaging and neuronavigation systems to protect neurological function during surgery.

• Arnold–Chiari malformation (Type I & II)
• Brain and spinal tumors such as meningioma and acoustic neuroma
• Craniovertebral junction disorders
• Hydrocephalus and syringomyelia
• Cerebral artery aneurysms and cavernomas
