Compassionate, Expert Neurosurgical Evaluation for Children
At Moroe Clinic, Chennai, we understand that caring for a child with a neurological condition requires more than just medical knowledge—it demands sensitivity, precision, and a child-first approach. Led by Dr. Suresh Babu, MCh, we offer expert consultation and diagnostic services for a wide range of congenital and acquired brain and spinal conditions in children. Based on each child’s needs, we provide guidance and connect families with the right surgical hospitals equipped to deliver specialized pediatric neurosurgical care.
Conditions We Evaluate and Plan for Surgical Management
Congenital Spine Abnormalities
We diagnose and advise on treatment options for complex congenital spine conditions, offering timely guidance to avoid complications like paralysis or developmental delays.
- Type I & Type II Diastematomyelia: A rare spinal cord split condition. We provide diagnostic imaging and neurosurgical assessment, with referral to experienced centers for correction.
- Spina Bifida: Early identification and planning for closure procedures to improve mobility and bladder control.
Myelomeningocele and Related Disorders
- Myelomeningocele: We evaluate the severity of this condition and recommend timely surgical repair at a trusted pediatric surgical center.
- Lipomyelomeningocele & Lipoma of the Filum Terminale: Through neurological assessments and imaging, we determine the need for untethering and coordinate referral for surgery.
- Meningocele: Accurate diagnosis and referral for delicate surgical closure to avoid fluid leaks and infection.
Chiari II Malformation
This condition, often linked with myelomeningocele, is evaluated using advanced imaging and neurological exams. We recommend decompression procedures and guide families to the appropriate neurosurgical teams.
Encephalocele Evaluation
Encephaloceles require expert imaging and evaluation. We provide parents with a clear understanding of the defect and connect them to specialized centers for craniotomy and repair.
Hydrocephalus in Children
- Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) Shunt Planning: For children with increased intracranial pressure or enlarged head, we assess the condition and guide families toward shunt placement by experienced pediatric surgeons. Ongoing follow-ups are available at Moroe Clinic.
Craniosynostosis Consultation
When premature fusion of skull bones is suspected, we evaluate cranial shape and growth patterns, and refer for reconstructive surgery that supports brain development and normal skull shape.
Pediatric Head Injury Assessment
Children with head trauma receive immediate evaluation at Moroe Clinic. When surgical intervention such as hematoma evacuation or skull fracture repair is needed, we coordinate emergency referrals to advanced care centers.
Pediatric Brain Tumors
We assist in diagnosis and pre-surgical planning for pediatric brain tumors such as:
- Medulloblastoma
- Craniopharyngioma
Our consultation includes imaging review, symptom analysis, and coordinated referrals for minimally invasive or major surgical tumor management.
