Abstract
The purpose of this report is to chronicle a 2-decade period of educational innovation and improvement, as well as governance reform, across the specialty of neurological surgery. Neurological surgery educational and professional governance systems have evolved substantially over the past 2 decades with the goal of improving training outcomes, patient safety, and the quality of US neurosurgical care. Innovations during this period have included the following: creating a consensus national curriculum; standardizing the length and structure of neurosurgical training; introducing educational outcomes milestones and required case minimums; establishing national skills, safety, and professionalism courses; systematically accrediting subspecialty fellowships; expanding professional development for educators; promoting training in research; and coordinating policy and strategy through the cooperation of national stakeholder organizations. A series of education summits held between 2007 and 2009 restructured some aspects of neurosurgical residency training. Since 2010, ongoing meetings of the One Neurosurgery Summit have provided strategic coordination for specialty definition, neurosurgical education, public policy, and governance. The Summit now includes leadership representatives from the Society of Neurological Surgeons, the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, the Congress of Neurological Surgeons, the American Board of Neurological Surgery, the Review Committee for Neurological Surgery of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education, the American Academy of Neurological Surgery, and the AANS/CNS Joint Washington Committee. Together, these organizations have increased the effectiveness and efficiency of the specialty of neurosurgery in advancing educational best practices, aligning policymaking, and coordinating strategic planning in order to meet the highest standards of professionalism and promote public health.

J Neurosurg 2018; 129:1331-1341. [PMID: 29393756 DOI: 10.3171/2017.7.jns17517] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2017] [Accepted: 07/13/2017] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
The authors chronologically categorized the 160 original articles written by Dr. Rhoton and his fellows to show why they selected their themes and how they carried out their projects. The authors note that as neurosurgery progresses and new techniques and approaches are developed, accurate and safe treatment will depend upon continued clarification of microsurgical anatomy.

Abstract
Dr. Rhoton’s key philosophies included “Keep working hard.”, “Make surgery more accurate, gentle and safe”, “We want perfect anatomical dissections, because we want perfect surgical operations”, “Competence without compassion is worthless. Compassion without competence is meaningless”, “Neurosurgeons share a great professional gift; our lives have yielded an opportunity to help mankind in a unique and exciting way” and “There is no finish line for this effort”. His words reveal his passion for microneurosurgery and infinite love for humankind. Although his reknown rested on his reputation as a researcher, Dr. Rhoton was also a devoted educator. The principal aim behind the enormous amount of work he performed was that of educating neurosurgeons worldwide, so that they could be better surgeons. His work included: (1) numerous dissection courses, (2) numerous lectures and publications including about 160 original papers (3) the textbook “RHOTON” and Rhoton Collection (4) the education of 119 research fellows. The projects directed in his lab, produced the international dissemination of neuroanatomical knowledge. The ultimate goal of his microsurgical research was to improve the care of patients with neurosurgical diseases around the world. The technical contributions and humble character of Dr. Rhoton should be remembered as we care for patients.
