The ISGNE - International Study Group of Neuroendoscopy, transformed into IFNE - International Federation of Neuroendoscopy, was founded in 2001 so that the experience of the great Masters was transmitted and applied by all of us. No doubt at the beginning of the new millennium, minimal invasion neurosurgery will be more consolidated. T
