Newswise — Rolling Meadows, IL (January 1, 2023). The January issue of Neurosurgical Focus (Vol. 8, No. 1 [https://thejns.org/video/view/journals/neurosurg-focus-video/8/1/neurosurg-focus-video.8.issue-1.xml]) presents 15 articles discussing peripheral nerve surgery.

Topic Editors: Mariano Socolovsky, Zarina S. Ali, Brandon W. Smith, and Kevin N. Swong        

Noting that “peripheral nerve surgery is unique in neurosurgery, as it allows for restoration of lost neurological function by way of regenerating and repairing damaged axons,” in this issue of Neurosurgical Focus: Video, the Topic Editors suggest the videos in this issue will present “innovative surgical techniques” that may help to provide “benefits not previously thought possible” for neurosurgical patients.
