“SurgiTel loupes sharpen my vision, streamline efficiency, and support the level of surgical precision these procedures demand.”

My name is Dr. Dickson Bandoh, and I’m a neurosurgeon practicing in Kumasi, Ghana. I received my pair of surgical loupes about five years ago during neurosurgical training. Since then, they’ve played an important role in the work I do every day.

In neurosurgery, precision begins with vision. With the aid of SurgiTel loupes, the surgical field comes closer into view, bringing clarity, efficiency, and control where every millimeter matters.
During a pediatric tumor removal, I treated an Adeyole cystic tumor compressing a developing brain. With the magnification provided by my loupes, the tumor margins came sharply into view, allowing for precise dissection and controlled removal while protecting delicate surrounding tissue.

In another case involving an intracerebral infection, a dangerous brain abscess required swift and accurate intervention. Enhanced magnification revealed the abscess capsule clearly, guiding careful entry and efficient evacuation.

I’ve also used the loupes in spine trauma surgery, including a case where a weapon was lodged near the spinal column after a stabbing. Precise visualization enabled careful removal of the object while protecting the spinal cord and preserving the integrity of surrounding structures.

During a pediatric congenital anomaly repair, I operated on a giant encephalocele. The enhanced visualization helped guide careful excision and precise reconstruction, restoring protection for the brain.

From tumors to trauma, infection to congenital repair, precision is everything in neurosurgery. SurgiTel loupes sharpen my vision, streamline efficiency, and support the level of surgical precision these procedures demand.
