Military neurosurgery has played a crucial role in the development of neurosurgery over time. Much of this progress is due to war-related experiences. Owing to the number and severity of war injuries and the limitations caused by war, surgeons have had to examine different methods and design special protocols for patient management. Given that in recent decades most wars have taken place in the Middle East, many lessons can be learned by reviewing the experiences of neurosurgeons in these wars. Wars in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Lebanon, and Yemen have been the largest and longest conflicts in the Middle East since the beginning of the 21st century, and a number of studies reported the experiences of surgeons in these wars. In this study, we reviewed the experience of military surgeons in managing war neurosurgical injuries in these areas within the last 2 decades.
军事神经外科学在神经外科学的发展过程中发挥了至关重要的作用。这一进展在很大程度上归功于与战争相关的经验。由于战争中伤员的数量和严重程度以及战争带来的限制，外科医生不得不研究不同的方法并设计特殊的患者管理方案。鉴于近几十年来大多数战争都发生在中东地区，因此通过回顾这些战争中神经外科医生的经验可以吸取很多教训。伊拉克、叙利亚、阿富汗、黎巴嫩和也门的战争是 21 世纪初以来中东地区最大和持续时间最长的冲突，有许多研究报告了这些战争中外科医生的经验。在这项研究中，我们回顾了过去 20 年中军事外科医生在这些地区管理战争性神经外科损伤的经验。
