The postgraduate certificate in Functional Neurosurgery is an updated compilation of the pathologies that are subject to study and treatment by Neurosurgery. The application of diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms enhances student learning and synthesizes the flow of information to facilitate its practical application in the student's environment. 

In epilepsy surgery, this interaction between specialties takes on special relevance in the preoperative study of patients with epilepsy, which determines from various approaches both whether the patient is a candidate for surgery and the precise origin of the epileptic seizures, in order to minimize neurological deficits and maximize the success of the intervention. There is a wide variety of surgical treatments in epilepsy surgery, a variety that is expanding with the emergence of novel therapies already applied in other branches of neurosurgery. Epilepsy of temporal origin presents specific characteristics in terms of prognosis and surgical techniques that differentiate it from extratemporal epilepsy and justify a different didactic approach. 

The application of intracranial localization systems has been decisive in understanding the evolution in the indications for surgery of movement disorders, especially in patients with Parkinson's disease, essential tremor and dystonia, which are the main pathologies that can benefit from surgical treatment; however, in recent years the success and accumulated experience has led to surgical treatment being extended to other more infrequent pathologies (Huntington's disease, Gilles de la Tourette's disease) but in which a significant benefit is being demonstrated with surgery. Deep brain stimulation is currently the most widely used surgical treatment and is constantly evolving with the appearance of new targets and neurostimulation systems that combine the possibility of performing more specific and even autonomous stimulation, always with the aim of improving results and reducing side effects. Very recently, the possibility of applying neuroablative lesions, which initially constituted the treatment of movement disorders, has been revived, and with the emergence of sophisticated ultrasound lesioning systems, a renewed interest in this type of procedure has arisen.

Surgical treatment of psychiatric pathology was relegated by the appearance of neuroleptic drugs. However, the experience accumulated in the treatment of movement disorders and its subsequent successful application in certain psychiatric diseases has led to a resurgence of psychosurgery, based on a better understanding of the brain circuits involved in psychiatric diseases, as well as on the mechanisms of deep brain stimulation and its advantages in the treatment of these pathologies.
