Dr. Catherine Mazzola, the President & CEO of NJPNI, is very proud to announce that the Presidents of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) and the Congress of Neurological Surgeons (CNS) endorsed the Evidence-Based Pediatric Hydrocephalus Guidelines on Feb. 5, 2014.

This document is the first practice guideline produced by and for pediatric neurosurgeons and was created under the auspices of the Section Guidelines Committee and the Joint Guidelines Committee of the AANS/CNS. Ann Marie Flannery, MD, FAANS; Paul Klimo, MD, FAANS; and Catherine Mazzola, MD, FAANS co-Chaired the committee and worked as co-authors on the guidelines, along with the other committee members. 

These Guidelines are CRUCIAL for educating other neurosurgeons about "best practices" available for the treatment of children and infants with HYDROCEPHALUS.  If you have any questions about hydrocephalus, or would like Dr. Mazzola to speak at an event about hydrocephalus, please call our office at 973-326-9000.
