Resumen

El primer informe impreso sobre una cirugía de tumor intracerebral en el mundo es el realizado por Bennett y Godle, en 1884, en Londres, sobre un glioma. Se publican, en la misma época, intervenciones sobre este tipo de cirugía en Francia, con Chipault, en Italia con Durante, en Estados Unidos con Keen, en Alemania con Krause y Oppenheim, entre otros. En México Rafael Lavista realiza la primera cirugía sobre una neoplasia intracerebral en 1891, y se publica en 1892. También se hace referencia, en esta serie informada por Lavista, al inicio de la cirugía de la epilepsia en México. El autor no ha encontrado, para el siglo XIX, otro informe de intervención sobre neoplasias intracerebrales en el ámbito hispánico.
