About
Jacques Grill is a leading pediatric neurosurgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive neurosurgical techniques for children with brain tumors and epilepsy. His major contributions lie in the clinical application and refinement of Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT), a cutting-edge, MRI-guided procedure that offers a safer alternative to traditional open surgery. In his pivotal single-center retrospective analysis of 41 consecutive pediatric procedures, Grill demonstrated the feasibility and safety of LITT in a European setting, providing critical early evidence for its adoption in children. This work, though recently published in 2025, has already garnered attention with 2 citations, signaling its growing influence. Beyond this, Grill’s broader research portfolio explores innovative surgical strategies for pediatric neuro-oncology, aiming to reduce morbidity while maximizing tumor control. His achievements include pioneering the use of LITT in one of the few European centers to adopt the technology, positioning him as a key figure in translating advanced thermal ablation techniques into routine pediatric care. For students and researchers, Grill’s work exemplifies how careful clinical analysis can drive the evolution of neurosurgery toward less invasive, more targeted treatments.
