Prof. MD. Kenan Kibici

My 14-year-old daughter, a competitive gymnast, suffered a sudden, catastrophic vertebral artery dissection during a floor routine. Rushed to Medical Park Bahçelievler, Prof. Kibici performed an emergency microsurgical repair in the middle of the night. His calm explanation to our terrified family about preserving blood flow to her brainstem was a lifeline. Nine months later, she's back in the gym, not as a patient, but as a coach for younger athletes.

I'm a 42-year-old maritime engineer with a complex spinal CSF leak that seven other specialists misdiagnosed as chronic migraines. Prof. Kibici was the first to connect my debilitating headaches, which worsened when upright, to my profession's constant pressure changes. His targeted blood patch procedure, planned after meticulous imaging, felt like plugging a leak in a submarine hull. I've been 'watertight' and headache-free for a year.

Our 8-year-old son, born with a severe Chiari malformation, had such intense head pain he could barely attend school. Prof. Kibici proposed a novel, minimally invasive decompression technique tailored for pediatric skull growth. Watching him explain the procedure to our son using a model of the brain and a soft toy was as impressive as his surgical skill. Our boy now painlessly dreams of becoming a paleontologist.

At 81, I developed trigeminal neuralgia so severe I stopped eating and speaking, waiting to die. My family brought me to Prof. Kibici as a last resort. He offered a percutaneous balloon compression, a gentler option for my age. The procedure took minutes. The next morning, I ate toast without weeping in pain and told my granddaughter a long-forgotten story. He gave me back my voice and my meals.

As a 68-year-old retired cartographer, I developed a rare, slow-growing meningioma that was distorting my visual field, making my beloved maps blur into meaningless shapes. Prof. Kibici didn't just see a tumor; he saw the erosion of my life's work. His planned endoscopic resection was so precise that I was identifying subtle topographic contours on a map within 48 hours. He restored the landscape of my mind.
