Types of Cerebrovascular Conditions We Treat

Brain Aneurysms (Cerebral Aneurysms)

Brain aneurysms are weakened areas in blood vessel walls that can rupture and cause life-threatening bleeding. Our expert neurosurgeon New York team specializes in both preventive treatment of unruptured aneurysms and emergency care for ruptured aneurysms, using minimally invasive techniques and microsurgical approaches to achieve optimal outcomes.

Arteriovenous Malformations (AVMs)

AVMs are abnormal tangles of blood vessels that can cause seizures, headaches and potentially fatal bleeding. Our Weill Cornell neurosurgery team offers comprehensive treatment including embolization, microsurgical removal and stereotactic radiosurgery, often using combination approaches for the best results.

Carotid Artery Disease and Stenosis

Carotid artery disease occurs when the major arteries to the brain become narrowed or blocked, significantly increasing stroke risk. We provide both surgical treatments, including carotid endarterectomy and stenting procedures, to restore proper blood flow and prevent stroke.

Moyamoya Disease

This rare condition causes progressive narrowing of brain arteries, leading to reduced blood flow. Our Weill Cornell neurosurgery doctors perform sophisticated bypass procedures to restore circulation and prevent stroke, using advanced microsurgical techniques to create new pathways for blood flow.

Stroke Prevention and Treatment

Our comprehensive stroke program focuses on preventing strokes through early intervention and treating acute strokes with emergency procedures. We offer 24/7 emergency stroke care and work closely with our stroke team to provide rapid, life-saving treatment.

Trigeminal Neuralgia

This painful condition affects the trigeminal nerve, causing severe facial pain. Our surgeons offer multiple treatment options including microvascular decompression, stereotactic radiosurgery and minimally invasive procedures to provide lasting pain relief.

Spinal Vascular Malformations

These rare conditions affect blood vessels in the spinal cord and can cause progressive neurological symptoms. Our team provides specialized treatment including embolization and microsurgical removal to prevent further damage and restore function.
