Prof. A.S. Tauber. Brain surgery. Clinical lectures. -Spb. 1898

Several years ago, neuropathologists and even psychiatrists were especially fond of the surgical treatment of the suffering of the central nervous system. At this time, neuropathologists very often called for help from the art of surgeons, and the surgical knife did not hesitate to penetrate into the cranial cavity and freely dispose of its contents. Soon, many observations appeared in this direction, mainly by English authors, who warmly recommended surgical intervention for brain diseases, reporting on the favorable results achieved by them with this method of treatment.
