Abstract

Homajoun Maslehaty and Athanasios K Petridis

The neurosurgical training is one of the most demanding ones. Studying and mastering the anatomy of the human central nervous system, reading and understanding scientific papers, learn how to perform surgeries, which can bring the surgeon to its limits day for day, are three equal columns in the making of a good neurosurgeon. Except of studying surgeries and books and learning from grand masters the study of some ones own surgeries and own mistakes become more and more important. Video recording of the surgeries and identifying the possible mistakes are very effective in order to correct future mistakes. Which step has led to a complication and how the complication was managed in a “self-made” video record proved, at least for us, to be a very effective way to improve surgical skills.
