Tarlov Cyst on the spine: Any advice?

@cpidgeon59 Thanks for asking. My surgery at Mayo was for Cervical stenosis because of a ruptured C5/C6 disc with bone spurs compressing my spinal cord. My surgeon was Dr. Jeremy Fogelson at Mayo Rochester. I had seen some literature he was a co author on involving Tarlov Cysts, so I think that is how his name came up. I didn't have those. I do like to welcome spine patient members even though we have had different experiences. I hope this wasn't too confusing. Dr. Fogelson is an excellent surgeon as my Mayo Clinic patient story will confirm. He is also very compassionate, and is a spine deformity expert. He does some big surgeries as well as simpler ones, like mine.

Are you looking for a surgeon who treats Tarlov Cysts?

Thank you Jennifer!! I had read your wonderful article on your art several months ago.
Always love to get great referrals on surgeons for any future needs.
I do have a neurosurgeon in California that specializes in TC.
Thank you for reply🌺🌺

I’m having a MRI of the It’s sacral spine on 31 August and also at the same time or 20 minutes after I will be having my second MRI of the lumbar spine and let’s see what it shows now, stay tuned.
