The application of medical ethics in the developing countries - A neurosurgical perspective.

Introduction: Neurosurgery is one of the rapidly evolving specialities of medical science, where the neurosurgeons have to provide evidence-based interventions in life threatening conditions maintaining the ethical standards.

Research Question: This narrative review sheds light on the current hindrances of the ethical aspects of neurosurgical practice in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) and provide some feasible solutions for future.

Material And Methods: A literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus and ISI web of knowledge focused on articles in English with the words "medical ethics" together with the words "neurosurgery", "ethical practice", "low and middle-income countries", "surgical innovation", "randomized clinical trials" and "outcome" alone or in combination.

Minimally Invasive Interhemispheric Approach for Giant Olfactory Groove Meningioma: Technical Note.

Background: Skull base tumors, such as large olfactory groove meningiomas (OGMs), are a challenge for neurosurgeons. However, the tendency to reduce invasive surgeries is gaining more adepts. We describe a minimally invasive interhemispheric approach with a falx window for microsurgical resection of the giant OGM as a technical note.
