The advances in the field of neurological surgery permit satisfactory treatment of problems heretofore looked upon as nonremediable. Visible abnormalities of the head should be analyzed carefully for neurological implications and possibilities of correction. The relief of pain by specific pain pathway interruption can be both gratifying and merciful, and if it is to be carried out, should not be withheld until the terminal stages of disease. Common symptoms such as epilepsy and subarachnoid hemorrhage deserve full scale investigation with an eye to elucidation of the causative factors and proper therapy.
