Message from Prof. P S Ramani
Founder President
The NSSA Website is being updated in keeping with the rapid progress in Neuro-Spinal surgery. In–fact, this branch has progressed so rapidly that today it is recognized as one of the most popular surgical branch.
It is all the more important that the younger neuro-spinal surgeons must strive hard to obtain thoroughly basic facts about the functioning of the spine. The applied anatomy as related to surgical interventions on the spine, along with understanding of the biomechanics will help the surgeons in the application of newer implants. There is no doubt that the safety of the patient is very much influenced by the expertise and application of the surgeon.
