Welcome to the neurosurgical clinic of the American Neuro Surgery Institute® (ANSI) in Romania. ANSI was founded by Dr Stefan Mindea, former Director of Minimally Invasive Spinal Surgery and Spinal Oncology at Stanford University Medical Clinic, USA. Dr Mindea has focused his entire career on technological innovation, medical devices, and the use of highly advanced non muscle-cutting surgical techniques for treatment of even the most complex pathologies. At ANSI, we have more than 15 years experience in treating complex brain and spine disorders with the most minimally invasive techniques practiced at world renowned institutions in the USA.

Dr Mindea specializes in 5 areas:

  1. en bloc brain tumor surgery with awake craniotomy/cortical mapping to offer the lowest risk of tumor recurrence.
  2. spinal tumor surgery and complex spinal reconstruction surgery (for failed surgery, spinal infections, or surgical
    reintervention.)
  3. the ULTRA minimally invasive technique for cervical disc herniation surgery via cervical disc arthroplasty (insertion of
    highly performing artificial cervical disc prosthesis), lumbar disc herniation or lumbar disc reherniation, spinal stenosis
    and spondylolisthesis, making us one of the most progressive and advanced neurosurgery practices in Europe.
  4. the ULTRA minimally invasive spinal prosthesis or spinal fixation surgery. Our technique offers the least traumatic
    and most minimally invasive solution with a 1 day hospitalization.
  5. endoscopic carpal tunnel surgery (median nerve compression) via 8mm incision on an outpatient basis.

At ANSI and Dr Mindea, be prepared to be pleasantly surprised at how advanced your surgical treatment options can be. With ANSI, you will not get standard or classic surgical recommendations like at the majority of the big clinics which involve big incisions in the muscles of the back and neck, blood loss, pain, long hospitalizations and recovery times. At ANSI, we will offer the most advanced surgical options practiced at the most elite institutions in America close to your home. Get ready to be treated like all of the major professional US athletes get treated at the best hospitals in America, with the most cutting-edge surgical techniques so that you can get back to living a happy and active life, pain free!
