title: [Operative posture in pediatric neurosurgery].
abstract: Proper placement of the pediatric neurosurgical patient is strictly correlated to age (newborn, toddler, infant, juvenile). Each age group is reviewed on the basis of different morphological and pathophysiological aspects of typical neurosurgical positions (prone, supine, sitting, lateral).
