ThE NEUROSURGICAL CLINIC at the Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich began as a small unit of the university's surgical clinic. Eduard Weber, who in 1952 became the first surgeon fully trained in the specialty of neurosurgery to join the surgical clinic's faculty, worked, until his death in 1962, to advance the new specialty. Neurosurgery became an independent department of the university in 1965, and the neurosurgical clinic moved to a new location at Beethovenplatz. Further expansion led the neurosurgical clinic to move again, in 1975, to the newly constructed Klinikum Grosshadern at the periphery of Munich. Frank Marguth, chairman of the department of neurosurgery from 1964 to 1991, had superb skill as an organizer and greatly enhanced the reputation of the department of neurosurgery. Today, the faculty of the department consists of 10 full-time staff members, 10 joint appointment staff members, and 16 residents and fellows. Annually, 2200 to 2300 procedures are performed in the neurosurgical clinic. The current philosophy in the department places heavy emphasis on subspecialization and academic training. Political and economic changes in Germany during recent years have affected the nation's public health system and pose major challenges to the department of neurosurgery.
慕尼黑路德维希 - 马克西米利安大学的神经外科诊所起初是该大学外科诊所的一个小科室。1952年，爱德华·韦伯成为首位接受神经外科专业全面培训并加入外科诊所教职队伍的外科医生，在1962年去世前，他一直致力于推动这一新兴专业的发展。1965年，神经外科成为该大学的一个独立科室，神经外科诊所迁至贝多芬广场的新址。进一步的扩张使得神经外科诊所在1975年再次迁至慕尼黑市郊新建的格罗斯哈登临床医院。1964年至1991年担任神经外科主任的弗兰克·马古思具备卓越的组织能力，极大地提升了神经外科的声誉。如今，该科室的教职人员包括10名全职员工、10名联合任命员工以及16名住院医师和研究员。神经外科诊所每年进行2200至2300台手术。该科室目前的理念高度重视亚专业划分和学术培训。近年来德国的政治和经济变革影响了该国的公共卫生系统，给神经外科带来了重大挑战。
