The DNA of Pediatric Neurosurgery

Highly specialized fields like pediatric neurosurgery evolve in the hands of a small but international group of dedicated experts. As such, comprehensive training requires a large degree of mobility. The editor of this book looks back on 20 years of productive, sometimes surprising and always profitable visits to respected colleagues, groups and centers in order to refresh and extend his personal range of surgical techniques.



This book is the result of very personal communications between the editor and 25 highly experienced pediatric neurosurgeons. Introducing their personal attitudes and approaches the authors offer also surgical tips and tricks that have proven useful in daily surgical practice. Although not a conventional textbook, it is relevant for neurosurgeons, neurologists and surgeons.
