Advances in Functional and Reparative Neurosurgery

Neurorehabilitation together with functional neurosurgery are steadily growing fields. This book covers the important advancements in this field.

Neurorehabilitation together with functional neurosurgery are steadily growing fields. In order to encapsulate such concepts, the fourth official scientific meeting of the Neurorehabilitation and Reconstructive Neurosurgery Committee of the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) was held in Seoul. This volume is the fourth in a new series of proceedings covering the most important advancements in this field.
