My husband didn’t have that type of cyst but had a synoma (spelling?) tumor which was wrapping around his spinal cord. We first had to have an MRI done by a neurologist and then saw a neurosurgeon who specialized in removing this type of tumor. Hope this helps a little.

Hi, @djb0711 - just wanted to be sure I understood what type of tumor your husband had. Perhaps a schwannoma (see https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/schwannoma/cdc-20352974)?
