Dr. Anurag Gupta — Associate Director & Head of the Unit – Neurosurgery in Delhi NCR

Dr. Anurag Gupta is Associate Director and Head of the Unit in Neurosurgery at Max Super Speciality Hospital, Saket, in Delhi NCR, with more than 20 years of experience. His profile records neurosurgery together with spine surgery.

His list is unusually evenly divided between the two. The cranial work covers brain tumor surgery and glioma surgery, skull base tumor surgery and skull base surgery, endoscopic brain surgery, deep brain stimulation, arteriovenous malformation surgery, peripheral nerve surgery, and paediatric brain tumor and hydrocephalus surgery. The spinal work covers microdiscectomy, spinal tumor surgery, spinal fusion surgery, spinal trauma surgery and endoscopic spine surgery.

All three of his degrees were taken at Kasturba Medical College in Manipal: MBBS in 2003, an MS in general surgery in 2006 and the MCh in neurosurgery in 2010.

His published work covers both compartments and mostly reports unusual cases or technique. He published on endoscopic evacuation of septated chronic subdural hemorrhage, with its technical considerations, results and outcome, in Surgical Neurology International in 2022. In the Asian Journal of Neurosurgery he reported a rare case of simultaneous multifocal craniospinal hemangiopericytomas, and in Neurology India both an unusual shunt entrapment with the distal end placed inside the falciform ligament and a paper on synchronous spinal lesions. His retrospective study of eight cases of traumatic atlanto-axial instability appeared in the Indian Journal of Orthopaedics.

Besides Max Healthcare in New Delhi he has been associated with Fortis Flt. Lt. Rajan Dhall Hospital, Narayana Super Speciality Hospital and Fortis Memorial Research Institute in Gurugram, Adarsha Super Speciality Hospital in Udupi, and Kasturba Medical College.
