Excerpt from Tumors of the Cerebrum: Their Focal Diagnosis, and Surgical Treatment In 1888, before the Congress of American Physicians and Surgeons, I presented a paper on cerebral localization in its practical relations, in which the status of focal brain surgery was discussed, the article including a consideration of the removal of brain tumors, and also of cortical excision and the operative treatment of hemorrhage, abscess and other lesions amenable to surgical procedure.2 About this time and during a few succeeding years, the application of the principles of cerebral physiology to practical surgery attracted the attention and excited the enthusiasm of the profession in Europe and this country. Enthusiasm was dulled and attention relaxed by frequent failures in the attempts to exactly localize lesions, and by the difficulties which beset the surgeon in his efforts to remove these lesions with the trephine and rongeur.
