[Cranial nerve functional neurosurgery: evaluation of surgical practice].
We report the results of an investigation carried out on the activity of functional neurosurgery of the cranial nerves in the French-speaking countries, based on the analysis of a questionnaire addressed to all the members of the SNCLF. Eighteen centers responded to this questionnaire, which showed that activities and indications varied greatly from one unit to another. The results appear homogeneous and comparable with those reported in the literature. The questionnaire sought to provide a global perspective, open to the comments and questions of all responders on the various techniques raised, with the objective of establishing a common decisional tree for these pathologies and providing if possible to a consensus for better dissemination of these therapies.
