Abstract：The functional neurosurgery in China started from stereotactic neurosurgery, and gradually developed into an independent functional neurosurgery discipline. The diseases to be treated expanded from Parkinson's disease to a complete spectrum of functional neurosurgery diseases. The surgical technique also changed from focusing on nerve ablative procedures to paying equal attention to neuro lesion and neuromodulation. Functional neurosurgery has developed rapidly in China and maintained a strong momentum of development. It has become a new subdiscipline of neurosurgery with broad prospects.
