Nine neurosurgeons were invited to present notable complications they had encountered, along with the lessons learned from each situation. Noting that “the lack of open discourse on complications may slow progress in the field and set the stage for repeating mistakes,” the authors of this issue offer their “hope that this work opens a rich source of learning.”
