====== Travaux de Neurologie Chirurgicale ======

The first recurrent [[publication]] whose major focus was in the field of [[neurosurgery]] was [[Travaux de Neurologie Chirurgicale]], initially published by Chipault in [[1896]].

However, Travaux lacks some critical elements. For instance, though there was a list of individuals on its cover, it is unclear if they represent authors or reviewers, such as an editorial board. Moreover, the publication itself was a single annual issue, which, though technically a journal (one issue per year), does not truly reflect the concept of a periodical.
