About

Analiz Rodriguez is a leading neurosurgeon and researcher whose work centers on the application of laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) for complex neurological conditions, particularly brain tumors and epilepsy. Her major contributions include pioneering the use of LITT for both new and recurrent meningiomas, demonstrating its safety and long-term efficacy as a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgery. In a prospective and retrospective case series (2024, 7 citations), she provided critical evidence for expanding LITT’s role in treating aggressive meningiomas resistant to standard therapies. Rodriguez has also advanced the field of epilepsy surgery, notably through her 2025 study on LITT for mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE), which examined seizure outcomes and procedural success (9 citations). Her work bridges clinical innovation and patient-centered outcomes, offering new hope for those with previously inoperable or refractory conditions. With a growing citation impact and a focus on translating cutting-edge thermal ablation techniques into routine practice, Rodriguez is shaping the future of minimally invasive neurosurgery. Her research continues to influence both surgical decision-making and the development of targeted therapies for brain disorders.
