@babykrueger123 I think you are in luck. I did a search and I came up with an abstract to literature about a surgical case for Tarlov Cysts at Mayo Clinic in Rochester. Then I recognized the names of 2 of the authors. One is Dr. Jeremy Fogelson who did my cervical spine surgery and the other is Dr. Ross Puffer who at that time was in the neurosurgery program at Mayo when I had my surgery and he was involved in my care.

Dr. Fogelson was the reason I came to Mayo for spine surgery and he was wonderful and I recovered well from my surgery. He teaches at Mayo. I highly recommend him and he is kind.

Here is the literature that he co-authored on Tarlov cysts, also known as perineural cysts.

There is also a surgeon at Mayo Jacksonville with this literature about Tarlov Cysts

If you wanted to seek treatment at any of the Mayo campuses, this link will get you started.

I'm glad you reached out here. I did search on the Mayo website and didn't find information about Tarlov Cysts. It was in searching for literature from Mayo that I found the information. Thank you for that, and I will let our moderator know that this information should be added to the site.

May I answer any questions for you about my care at Mayo Clinic?
