On behalf of the Neurosurgical Association of Malaysia (NAM), I am delighted to welcome one and all to the exquisite melting pot of Kuala Lumpur for the WFNS Symposium 2018. Our efforts have culminated in this singular honour of hosting the Sixth International Symposium.
The Neurosurgical Association of Malaysia (NAM) is the peerless society representing all Neurosurgeons in Malaysia. Shortly after its inception, NAM became affiliated with the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) on 16th September 2001, coinciding with a very significant date in our Nation’s history. Embarking on the tenet - Enhancing the Neurosciences - we have endeavoured to be actively involved in organising various educational and scientific meetings at regional and international platforms.
Malaysia, a developing nation in the geographically viable epicentre of the Asia Pacific region, eminently qualifies to host a symposium of such distinction under the aegis of the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies. Our society is ardently committed to improving neurosurgical care and training & research to benefit

our patients, all in keeping with the WFNS’s objectives to promote the same. We have a close rapport with the regional Neurosurgical Societies fostering camaraderie with fellow neurosurgeons.
I am confident that with the patronage of the Member Societies & Affiliates of the WFNS, the participation in this event in terms of faculty and delegates will exceed expectation. We will reciprocate by ensuring a convivial atmosphere, complete with a commendable scientific programme and a fulfilling social calendar for all.
Fervently, I look forward to the arrival of the fraternity from the world over, to our shores – “Selamat Datang ke Kuala Lumpur” – Welcome to Kuala Lumpur.

Dear Friends and Colleagues,
It gives me great pleasure, on behalf of the Neurosurgical Association of Malaysia (NAM) to welcome you to the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) Symposia 2018, to be held at the Hilton Hotel, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
It is indeed an honour for us in Malaysia to host such a prestigious event, which to date, will be the biggest event WFNS will host in Malaysia. For this, I would like to thank the President, Prof Dr Franco Servadei and the Administrative Council of the WFNS for placing their trust in NAM and conferring us this task. I would also like to thank our President of NAM, Assoc Prof Dato’ Dr Hari Chandran who led the successful bid in procuring this honour.
Being a small nation with a population of about 30 million, and at age 54 though a fledging cohort in the Neurosurgery fraternity, we hope to showcase not only our advances in Neurosurgery, but also the warm hospitality of our fellow Malaysians hailing from various ethnic backgrounds. I urge our delegates to get yourselves and your taste buds ready for some very unique blends of multi-ethnic cuisine in Malaysia and the best food choices from around the world which is unique to the Peninsular.
It is worthwhile to note that the first Neurosurgery unit was set up by Dr Roy Selby, an American housed at Kuala Lumpur General Hospital in 1963. The first Malaysian Neurosurgeon, Dato’ Dr Arumugasamy was trained and board certified in the United States. I must say, Neurosurgery in Malaysia has come a long way since. Today we have a total of 96 Neurosurgeons dispersed throughout the nation with more than a third trained in Malaysia.

WFNS Symposia 2018 Organising & Scientific Committee
NAM is committed to the training of Young Neurosurgeons (YNS) and the development of Women in Neurosurgery (WINS). We have marked this with the formation of two subcommittees that will be looking into their welfare and development. The youth are the future, and their progress and development is paramount. To that end, we have allocated 100 seats for YNS in this Symposia where the committee has decided to sponsor their registration and accommodation. We hope through this gesture, we will be assisting the YNS mainly from the Developing Nations.
At the WFNS Symposia 2018, we hope to discuss issues and challenges that are faced by the developing nations in Asia with the aim to contribute towards the improvement and advancement of Neurosurgery in these regions.
The Scientific Committee is planning a comprehensive Scientific Programme that will give delegates the opportunity to update themselves with current and advances in Neurosurgery.
Apart from Plenary and Keynote Lectures, there will also be interactive workshops to teach practical aspects of Neurosurgery and encourage hands-on participation from delegates. We strongly encourage the submission of abstracts for the Free Paper Oral and Poster sessions, to be part of the scientific programme and share your own experiences and research in your institution or country.
I look forward to welcoming you to Kuala Lumpur soon: “Selamat datang ke Malaysia!”

Intrinsic Brain Neuroanatomy –3D Lectures And Live BrainDissection Demonstration

The WFNS Symposia 2018 Organizing Committee is proud to introduce our Pre-Congress workshop on 'Intrinsic Brain Neuro Anatomy'. This workshop will be held on the 15th and 16th of August 2018 in Hilton Kuala Lumpur as part of the WFNS Symposia 2018 programme.
A thorough knowledge of anatomy is fundamental in neurosurgery as surgical access is limited and the slightest mistake would be catastrophic. We have lined up a comprehensive and in-depth lecture series based on 3D projections of cadaveric dissections and intra-operative anatomy to improve the understanding of the young neurosurgeon at the brink of their careers, as well as refresh the knowledge of the senior neurosurgeon.
We have also included a live demonstration of White Matter and intrinsic brain dissection to be performed live by our faculty on a brain specimen prepared as per the Klinger method. This demonstration is scheduled to be an interactive session with close observation for the participants.
The course faculty includes some very renowned people in the field of neurosurgical neuronatomy including Dr Pablo González-López from Alicante, Spain, Dr Juan Martino Gonzalez from Santander, Spain and Mr Ramez W Kirollos from the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom.
Hurry and book your seats now as places are limited to 80 participants on a first come - first served basis!
We look forward to welcoming you in August in Kuala Lumpur!

KUALA LUMPURExperience
Petronas Twin TowersThe 452 metres tall Petronas Twin Towers is the tallest building in Malaysia, and was once the tallest building in the world.
At the base of the Petronas Twin Towers is Suria KLCC, which is a shopping mall that is very popular among tourists. Tourists can also take a stroll along the beautiful landscaped KLCC Park, which is located at the side of the twin towers, where it features a jogging track, walking paths, water fountain and a wading pool for children.
Besides the mall and the park, there are also other attractions such as the Aquaria KLCC, Petronas Art Gallery and Petrosains Science Center inside the Petronas Twin Towers.
Batu CavesBatu Caves is an iconic and most frequented tourist attraction in Kuala Lumpur.
It is a limestone hill comprising 3 major caves featuring temples and Hindu shrines. Outside Batu Caves stands the world’s tallest golden statue of Lord Murugan, a Hindu Deity, at 42.7 metres tall.
The attraction of Batu Caves includes the steep 272 steps climb up to finally view the stunning skyline of the city centre. Along your way up, you will see lots of monkeys frolic around the caves.
Malaysian FoodFood can be considered as the national obsession. It is not uncommon to be greeted by the phrase “Sudah makan?” which means “Have you eaten?”. Malaysian food is heavily influenced by Thai, Chinese, Indonesian and Indian cuisine. As elsewhere in Asia, rice is an essential staple. Some of the popular Malaysian food are Nasi Lemak, Char Kuey Teow, Roti Canai and Curry laksa. Our local delicacies will definitely tantalise your tastebuds.
National MuseumThe National Museum of Malaysia is a beautiful building characterized by traditional Malay Minangkabau-style architecture which stands in the heart of the city of Kuala Lumpur. It displays an excellent introduction to Malaysia’s history, economy, geography, arts, crafts and culture.
Kuala Lumpur fondly known as KL, is a modern and bustling city and is one of the region’s most properous capitals. KL consists of a melting pot of cultures infused together and boasts a variety of attractions such as interesting heritage sites, shopping, entertainment, nature and adventure.
Here are some attractions you would not want to miss while you are here in Kuala Lumpur.
