Abstract: Ethical issues have been at front burner of medical practice. It has guide the practice of neurosurgery, with the rural settings not been an exception to the application of the basic moral tenets which form the core value of ethics. This ethical principle guides the safe practice of neurosurgery in view of its sophisticated rigorous training and practice schedule aiming to protect the interest of the patients and the neurosurgeon. Our review looks through a literature search of medical ethics as it is applicable to the practice of neurosurgery
