Trigeminal and glossopharyngeal neuralgia
These conditions refer to a type of pain felt either in the face or in the back of the throat. The cause of this pain is typically unknown. The diagnosis is made after careful consultation with your physician. Multiple treatment options are available for these conditions. |

Craniotomies and craniectomies
These procedures are performed by neurosurgeons to treat surgical problems including hemorrhagic strokes, trauma, brain tumors, and a multitude of neurological disorders. Utilizing the operating microscope during these delicate procedures allows safe, precise, and less invasive approaches to complex and life-threatening neurosurgical disorders.
Gamma knife radiosurgery
The neurosurgeons at Lancaster NeuroScience & Spine Associates frequently use the gamma knife for treatment of brain tumors and vascular malformations. Through pre-operative planning with the gamma knife radiosurgical team, high doses of radiation are delivered to lesions in a single treatment session. Through sophisticated treatment plans, maximal doses of radiation are delivered to lesions within the brain, minimizing injury to normal structures. |
