  4. Doctor's Profile Dr. Julio Pozuelos is one of the most respected neurosurgeons in Guatemala City, a specialist in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases affecting the central nervous system and spine. Since 2007 he has corrected many cases of spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, tumors, and other neurological conditions, allowing his numerous patients a second chance at pursuing normal life. Dr. Pozuelos received extensive training in Madrid, Spain, where he completed neurosurgery residency. During this time, he participated in clinical research, medical research studies and advanced courses in neurosurgical procedures. Currently back in Guatemala, he works as Head of Neurosurgery at both, Hospital Militar and Sanatorio El Pilar, located in zone 16 and 15 respectively.

  5. Patients who arrive at his clinic present a wide array of problems and symptoms: cases range from unusual brain tumors to more commonly seen nerve root lesions,  such as lumbosciatica. This is a very common disease and can manifest as electric shock or burn sensations that start in the lower back or buttocks and extends towards the back of the leg and sole. The pain intensity and affected region may vary depending on which nerve root was damaged. The sciatic nerve is the longest nerve of the human body, coming from several nerve branches that originate in the spine, including the roots of the last two lumbar vertebrae (L4 and L5) and the first three sacral nerves (S1, S2 and S3). Dr. Pozuelos has successfully treated innumerable cases of sciatic nerve injury secondary to vertebral compression.

  6. Dr. Pozuelos also treats cases of cerebrospinal fluid disorders. These disorders may cause an exaggerated increase in the pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid within the cranial cavity. Normally, this liquid protects and cushions the brain inside the cranium, but when it accumulates exaggeratedly it can cause an increase in pressure detrimental to brain tissue. This increase in fluid can be caused by brain injuries, infections, tumors and bleeding in the brain, among other causes. To relieve pressure, a flexible biocompatible shunt or tube is surgically inserted to withdraw fluid from the brain.
