Internet Enduring Material Sponsored by Stanford University School of Medicine. Presented by the Department of Neurosurgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.

The Rhoton Society was founded in 2018 in Tianjin, China, by a group of Prof. Rhoton fellows with the goals of honoring and celebrating his life and legacy, and to “keep working” to ensure that the field of microneurosurgical anatomy is embraced by the next generation of neurosurgeons: “We study microsurgical anatomy to make what is a delicate, fateful, awesome experience for our patients, more accurate, gentle, and safe”

The topic of the meeting is Tradition & Innovation, reflecting the importance of adhering to the classic principles of microneurosurgery and at the same time encouraging advancement and progress in our field.

This session covers Brainstem & Posterior Fossa Surgery and features 10 presentations.
