Dr. Caetano Coimbra has over 20 years of commitment to excellence and innovation in the treatment of complex skull base tumors. Dr. Coimbra is the Director of the Minimally Invasive Brain Surgery Center at Medical City Dallas and Co-Director of the Skull Base Center at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas. He founded the Center for Acoustic Neuroma with Dr. Yoav Hahn, a neurotologist and lateral skull base surgeon. Over the years he has had the opportunity to refine several aspects of surgical techniques for resection of acoustic neuroma. These surgical modifications have maximized favorable facial nerve function outcomes and minimized brain retraction and brain injury during these complex surgeries.
