Abstract

In this insightful and personal biographical article, Professor Bertelli recounts his journey from surgical problem to surgical solution with incredible detail. This was an invited article as part of the 2025 <i>FESSH/JHSE</i> Special Issue on 'Technology and Innovation'. He shares some of this thought process behind novel nerve transfer or examination techniques, built on solid anatomical foundations and careful patient observations. Professor Bertelli attributes his achievements to the influence of mentors, the importance of cadaveric dissections and long years of clinical experience.
