Editorial: Advances in Functional Neurosurgery [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 In the last 20 years, there have been considerable advances in the techniques, technologies, and approaches devoted to functional neurosurgery. These advances have led to improved stereotactic accuracy, better outcomes, a lower rate of complications, and an increasing number of patients benefiting from this neurosurgical approach.

Resurgence of functional neurosurgery for Parkinson's disease: A historical perspective
Movement Disorders, 1998 The history of functional neurosurgery for the treatment of Parkinson's disease is reviewed. Two major stages may be distinguished: (1) open functional neurosurgery, which started in 1921 with bilateral cervical rhizotomy by Leriche.

A cry for specialists in functional neurosurgery.
Surg Neurol Int, 2013 Stereotactic surgery is a rapid growing field. This prolific field focuses on new technologies to improve and add precision and accuracy in all areas of neurosurgery. “Frameless Stereotactic Surgery,” which already lost the name of its stereotactic origin, now is known as “image guided surgery,” present in vascular neurosurgery, neuro-oncology surgery,
