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. Hannes Haberl, the editor of this book, looks back on 20 years of productive, sometimes surprising, but always profitable encounters with respected colleagues in order to review and extend his personal range of approaches and surgical techniques. This book is the result of very personal communications between the editor and 25 of the most experienced pediatric neurosurgeons. Introducing their very personal attitudes and approaches, the authors offer also surgical tips, tricks and insights which have proven useful in daily surgical practice and education. Although – or precisely because - not a conventional textbook, it is highly recommendable for neuro-surgeons, neurologists, pediatricians and interested members of related disciplines.
