Abstract

The availability of CT-Scanners and MRI coupled to stereotactic systems has made a stereotactic neurosurgical intervention an everyday tool. The indications, contra-indications and complications concerning intracranial tumours, the hypophysis, combined open stereotactic procedures, third ventriculostomy, diseases of the extrapyramidal motor system, pain, epilepsy, psychosurgery and the transplantation of embryonal cells are discussed.
