About
G. Mantovani is a pioneering pediatric neurosurgeon whose research focuses on advanced stereotactic and functional neurosurgery for children. Their major contributions lie in adapting and refining minimally invasive techniques for the pediatric posterior fossa and movement disorders. Notably, their 2023 technical note on a robot-assisted transcerebellar stereotactic approach to the posterior fossa (6 citations) introduced a safer, more precise method for accessing deep-seated lesions in children, reducing surgical morbidity. In 2024, they expanded the boundaries of functional neurosurgery by demonstrating the efficacy of unilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus ventralis intermedius thalami (Vim) for post-traumatic tremor in a multicenter pediatric cohort (2 citations). This work challenges the traditional bilateral approach, offering a tailored solution for young patients with disabling tremors. Mantovani’s innovative techniques and collaborative multicenter studies are shaping the future of pediatric neurosurgery, providing new hope for children with complex neurological conditions.
