About
Dr. Marie Bourgeois is a pioneering pediatric neurosurgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for children with epilepsy and brain tumors. Her major contribution lies in demonstrating the safety and efficacy of Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) in pediatric populations, a field where European experience remains limited. In her landmark study, "Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) in pediatric neurosurgery," she reported a single-center retrospective analysis of 41 consecutive procedures, providing critical real-world evidence that LITT is a viable alternative to traditional microsurgery. This work, already garnering early citations, has helped establish LITT as a transformative tool in pediatric neuro-oncology and epilepsy surgery. Dr. Bourgeois’s research is notable for bridging a gap in European pediatric neurosurgery, offering families and clinicians a less invasive option with potentially faster recovery times. Her ongoing efforts continue to shape the future of pediatric neurosurgical care, making her a key figure in the adoption of MRI-guided thermal ablation for children.
