Chief Physician, an internationally‑renowned pioneer and advocate of fully‑endoscopic minimally‑invasive neurosurgical techniques. He currently serves as the Director of the Department of Neurosurgery at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, Doctoral Supervisor, and Dual‑appointed Professor at the School of Basic Medical Sciences, Fudan University.
Domestically, he was the first to report innovative minimally‑invasive techniques including endoscopic extended endonasal approach for suprasellar‑third‑ventricle craniopharyngiomas, Meckel’s cave tumors and odontoidectomy, endoscopic SCITA approach for resection of pineal and thalamic tumors, and endoscopic far‑lateral SCITA for petroclival meningiomas. Internationally, he was the first to report innovative minimally‑invasive techniques such as the application of 3D‑FIESTA MR sequences for evaluating midline skull‑base lesions, contralateral posterior interhemispheric trans‑falcine approach for trigone meningioma resection, combined endoscopic endonasal odontoidectomy with posterior decompression, reduction and fixation for basilar invagination, endoscopic endonasal lamina terminalis‑tuber cinereum approach for intra‑third‑ventricular craniopharyngioma resection, endoscopic far‑lateral SCITA for dumbbell‑shaped middle‑posterior‑fossa trigeminal schwannomas and craniopharyngiomas, pineal‑shifting resection for intra‑third‑ventricular tumors, and OTTA approach for third‑ and fourth‑ventricular tumor resection. He has actively promoted extracapsular pseudocapsule dissection for pituitary adenoma resection, which has markedly improved gross total resection rates and achieved internationally‑leading endocrine remission rates for GH‑secreting adenomas. He vigorously advocates, promotes and practices the full‑spectrum application of neuroendoscopic minimally‑invasive techniques in neurosurgery. He established China’s first fully‑endoscopic neurosurgery center and has popularized its demonstrative application across the country. He is the chief editor of *Endoscopic‑Navigation Minimally‑Invasive Neurosurgical Operative Techniques* and *Endoscopic Minimally‑Invasive Surgery for Pineal Region Tumors*, and was invited to contribute to monographs including *Skull Base Surgery:Strategies* edited by Walter C. Jean from the United States.
Specialties: Endoscopic minimally‑invasive surgical treatment of complex central nervous system tumors (pituitary adenomas, craniopharyngiomas, meningiomas, pineal‑region tumors, acoustic neuromas, chordomas, gliomas, various ventricular‑system tumors, etc.), cerebrovascular diseases (intracranial aneurysms, cerebrovascular malformations, etc.), cranial nerve disorders (trigeminal neuralgia, hemifacial spasm), hydrocephalus and various intracranial cysts.
