Children with inheritable disorders frequently require neurosurgical treatment. As a team we work along with the other pediatric specialists and geneticists to provide advanced care in a family-centered environment.
Some genetic disorders are associated with tumors such as
- Neurofibromatosis
- Tuberous sclerosis
- Cowden disease
- von Hippel Lindau disease
- Spina bifida
- Craniosynostosis
- Epilepsy
- Vascular abnormalities
We work closely with colleagues in genetics, pediatric neurology, neuroradiology, neuropathology, and other pediatric specialties to provide comprehensive assessment and management of the child's disorder.
