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.

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.
