In the last 10 years neurosurgical practice has seen exponential growth that has shattered all the imaginary borders of its predecessors. From tremendous advancements in neuroendovascular care to treat stroke patients that have sustained symptoms more than 24 hours ago, to minimally invasive robotic spine surgery that discharges patients’ homes on the same day. All these advancements have drastically improved patient outcomes in the developed world. Many neurosurgical procedures have become more simplified and more intuitive thanks to computer software and hardware that guided neurosurgeons’ decisions in treating patients operatively. However, while all these advancements have proven efficacy and efficiency in the operating room, these technologies are rarely applied or used in low-and-middle-income countries due to a lack of awareness or financial issues. There is the vast majority of newer technologies, that many low and middle-income country hospitals are simply not aware of due to limitations in general awareness or lack of educational materials backing up their efficacy.
