The Asian Journal of Neurosurgery (AJNS), a publication of the Asian Congress of Neurological Surgeons (ACNS), was started with the late Prof. Tetsuo Kanno with the primary aim to encourage and motivate young neurosurgeons to write scientific papers for their academic career.

It was very important that AJNS was published with free access (“Open Access”) to all neurosurgeons. The articles published online under the “eFirst ahead of print” model are considered published and can be cited and quoted using the DOI as the reference source.

AJNS publishes all neurosurgical topics with original papers, case reports, reviews, and letter to the editor, exposing our readers to a great wealth of neurosurgical sciences.

The first issue was published in 2010 with only two issues each in 2010 and 2011, respectively. Till now since 2011, it has 4 issues annually with a total of 44 issues till the end of 2021.

With every passing year, activity and article inflow in AJNS have been increasing. To date, there are a total of 1,628 PubMed-indexed articles listed in AJNS.

It is a great pleasure for me to announce that one of our most outstanding neurosurgeons, Prof. Yoko Kato, has accepted to be the Editor-in-Chief of AJNS, and I am convinced and hopeful that under her leadership with the new publisher Thieme, it will mark another major step for the development of AJNS.
