In memoriam

Over the years many internationally recognised pediatric neurosurgeons have made outstanding contributions to the improvement of neurosurgery for children worldwide. This may have been in areas of scientific advancement, clinical excellence, education or in their contribution to the improvement of global healthcare for children.

We celebrate some of these neurosurgeons in this corner of our website and over time we hope to create a fitting memorial to the memory of these giants of pediatric neurosurgery.
