    Editor-in-Chief

    Brazilian Journal of Neurosurgery

    Dear Dr. Eberval:

    In the recent volume 39(2) of the Brazilian Journal of Neurosurgery, we were deeply and negatively surprised with the finding in the article “Microsurgical and Endoscopic Anatomy of the Cavernous Sinus”, coaoutohored by yourself. The first author aludded to be a member of our University (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul). Unless this was done by an improper digitation error, we, here, never found any position of this doctor in our Medical School. This being so, according to the possible legal and ethical responsibilities, we ask prompt manifestation of the authors or the journal for proper corrections and explanations.
