NEUROSURGERY is a specialized field of surgery for the treatment of diseases or conditions of the central nervous system (CNS) and spine.
Neurosurgery is the specialized field of surgery that treats diseases that affect the CNS—the brain and the spine. A neurosurgeon is a medical doctor who has received extensive training in the surgical and medical management of neurological diseases. The field of neurosurgery is one of the most sophisticated surgical specialties and encompasses advanced surgical and imaging technology and new research in molecular neurosurgery and gene therapy. There are five general categories of neurosurgical diseases that are commonly managed by neurosurgeons: cerebrovascular (hemorrhage and aneurysms); traumatic head injury (THI)(traumatic injury caused by accident); degeneration diseases of the spine; tumors in the CNS; functional neurosurgery; surgery for congenital abnormalities; and neurosurgical management of the CNS.
Cerebrovascular diseases that usually require surgery include spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage, spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage, spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, cerebral aneurysms, hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, and angiomatous malformations.

It is Neurosurgery please.
The neurosurgeon is a specialist in surgically treating the neurological problems,diseases in humans.
They later can specialise in spine surgery, brain tumor, skull base surgery, etc. For most part they only treat surgically treatable diseases.
A neurologist, is not a surgeon by training, they diagnose and treat a variety of neurological conditions such as epilepsy, brain tumor, stroke, dementia, headache, back pain, etc. Some of these conditions can be treated surgically, hence we send them to our neurosurgeon .
Hope this helps.

If you would have asked your physician this question,then it will become simple.Neuro is related to nervous system in our body.Neurology and Neurosurgery are all related to the same.
