Op. Dr. Cagri Canbolat

About Doctor

Qualifications:

• Medical degree: Cumhuriyet University Faculty of Medicine, Turkey.
• Specialized in Neurosurgery: Department of Neurosurgery, Cumhuriyet University.

Overview:

Op. Dr. Çağrı Canbolat is a skilled neurosurgeon at LIV Hospital Vadistanbul, with a background combining rigorous neurosurgical training and experience across several prominent Turkish hospitals. He completed his medical education and neurosurgery specialization at Cumhuriyet University, followed by a period of compulsory service, and subsequently gained diverse clinical experience at private hospitals before joining LIV Hospital in 2023.

Dr. Canbolat is known for integrating advanced technology into his surgical planning — including use of 3D modeling and virtual‑reality tools — which helps enhance precision, minimally invasive techniques, and tissue-preserving microsurgery.

He is a member of professional societies such as the Turkish Neurosurgical Society, its Spinal & Peripheral Nerve Surgery Group, the Turkish Spine Society, Middle East Spine Society, the Skull Base Society and the Skull Base Association — Surgical Planning Working Group.

Given his combination of neurosurgical expertise, modern surgical planning tools, and experience with both adult and pediatric cases, he is well‑suited for complex brain, spine and nerve surgeries, including challenging vascular, tumor, spinal and skull‑base pathologies.

Conditions Treated:

• Brain and spine tumors (e.g. meningioma, glioblastoma, metastatic tumors)
• Vascular brain diseases: aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVM), vascular malformations, cerebral hemorrhages (intracerebral, subarachnoid, subdural, epidural)
• Hydrocephalus and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) disorders requiring shunt or drainage procedures.
• Spine disorders: disc herniation (lumbar, cervical), spinal canal stenosis, spinal deformities, degenerative spine conditions, spinal cord compression, spinal trauma, spinal infections, and degenerative spine disease requiring micro‑ or endoscopic spinal surgery.
• Congenital or structural disorders such as cranio‑vertebral junction anomalies, skull base pathologies, spinal deformities, possibly pediatric neurosurgical conditions.

Procedures Performed:

• Microsurgical brain tumor removal (e.g. meningioma, glioma, metastatic lesions, skull‑base tumors).
• Surgical treatment of brain vascular diseases (e.g. aneurysm clipping/coiling, AVM resection, vascular malformation surgeries, hemorrhage evacuation).
• Treatment for hydrocephalus and CSF disorders: ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt surgery, CSF drainage, cranioplasty.
• Spine surgeries: microdiscectomy, full‑endoscopic lumbar or cervical disc herniation surgery, spinal decompression, spinal stabilization or revision surgery, spinal deformity corrections, minimally invasive spine procedures.
• Pediatric neurosurgery (brain & spine) as well as adult neurosurgical procedures — under general neurosurgery & spine divisions.
