History of Neurosurgery: Around the World and in Bangladesh
Abstract
Thousands of years were needed for neurosurgery to evolve into its present form. The entire history of neurosurgery is vast and beyond the scope of this book. This evolutionary history, spanning from the pre-historic era to the 21st century, is described sequentially in this chapter in brief. Here, the genesis of neurosurgery, including important developmental events, as well as relevant honorable neurosurgeons or neuroscientists are described. In the second part of this chapter, the history of the development of neurosurgery in Bangladesh is described in brief.
