About
Dr. Zhou Fei is a pioneering clinical researcher in neurosurgery and peripheral nerve regeneration, with a focused expertise in the surgical restoration of facial nerve function. Her work centers on developing and refining nerve anastomosis techniques—particularly masseteric–facial nerve end-to-end anastomosis (MFA)—to treat facial paralysis resulting from intracranial tumor resections, such as acoustic neuroma. In a landmark 2023 case report, Dr. Zhou demonstrated the first successful integration of individual-target transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to accelerate functional recovery following MFA, achieving notable improvements in both motor reinnervation and synkinesis reduction. This innovative approach, which combines precise surgical repair with targeted neuromodulation, has garnered significant attention (3 citations) for its potential to shorten recovery timelines and enhance patient quality of life. Her contributions bridge the gap between microsurgical technique and neurorehabilitation, offering new hope for patients with iatrogenic facial nerve injuries. Dr. Zhou’s work is widely recognized for its translational impact, directly informing clinical protocols in neurosurgery and plastic surgery departments worldwide.
