No specific surgery: Brain surgeries may be done to treat uncontrollable seizures, remove brain tumors, shunt excess cerebrospinal fluid build-up that puts pressure on the brain, open skull sutures that closed prematurely, repair blood vessel malformations or reduce the impact of brain trauma. They often improve a child's health and chance of survival; some help preserve cognition or allow development to proceed.
