Vascular cranial

neuropathies

I perform microvascular decompression of cranial nerves 5, 7, and 9 for trigeminal neuralgia, hemifacial spasm, and glossopharyngeal neuralgia, respectively. I perform percutaneous trigeminal rhizotomy

Compression

fractures

I perform kyphoplasty for painful compression fractures.

Brain & spine

tumors

I perform biopsy and resection of primary and metastatic brain and spinal tumors. I perform endovascular embolization of hypervascular tumors. I collaborate with Radiation Oncology to plan and deliver stereotactic radiosurgery to brain and spinal tumors.

Subdural

hematomas

I perform evacuation of subdural hematomas and also minimally-invasive endovascular middle meningeal artery embolization for the treatment of chronic subdural hematomas.
