Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Since 1919, the prelude of modern neurosurgery history, neurosurgical expertise, technology, resources, and access to information have continually evolved around the globe. With the in-depth exploration of cranial base anatomy by Dolenc and Rhoton and the introduction of the emerging surgical concept and endoscopic technology, the application of neurosurgery has expanded from the supratentorial space to the whole central cranial base. Despite all this inspiring progress, surgical management of intracranial lesions is still associated with high post-operative morbidity and mortality due to the inherent eloquent location. What techniques or specific skills used in neurosurgery could benefit patients the most? This is clearly an issue that must be solved urgently. Thus, in this Special Issue, I would like to invite authors to submit studies focusing on new and developing surgical skills and clinical techniques assisting the diagnosis, pre-operative evaluation, intraoperative monitoring and postoperative rehabilitation of neurosurgery. Authors are welcome to cover other specific topics that have not been mentioned but fall within the theme of the Special Issue.
