Neurosurgery, Brain & Spine
Cerebrovascular Endovascular Neurosurgery
Patients diagnosed with cerebrovascular disease receive expert care from the team of USF Health neurosurgeons and neurologists, who work together and with experts in interventional neuroradiology and radiation oncologists – all working together to determine the best course of treatment.
Services include: open surgery, bypasses, or endovascular treatments such as coiling or stenting.
Conditions Treated
Cerebrovascular neurosurgery can help treat complex diseases of the brain and its vascular systems, including:
- Stroke
- Transient Ischemic Attack
- Aneurysms
- Vascular Malformations
Art, Innovation and the Future of Stroke Care
Dr. Maxim Mokin, a neurologist and neurosurgeon at USF Health Morsani College of Medicine, brings an artist’s eye and a scientist’s precision to the challenge of improving stroke care. He draws on his visual intuition, literally painting scenes from the angiography suite, to navigate complex vascular systems in the brain. Mokin and his team at USF Health and Tampa General Hospital are deeply involved in clinical trials that test the latest neuro-interventional tools and techniques. Their work aims to identify which devices and approaches make treatment safer and more effective, especially when every minute counts in restoring blood flow during a stroke.
$3M Gift Establishes Endowed Chair to Advance Neurosurgery at USF Health
A $3 million gift from Judy Genshaft and Steve Greenbaum to the University of South Florida Health Department of Neurosurgery establishes the Genshaft and Greenbaum Endowed Chair in Neurosurgery. The endowment is intended to support faculty, research, and resident education while ensuring the department remains a leader in neurosurgical care, innovation, and training. It is designed to benefit current leadership as well as future chairs, with flexibility to invest in evolving technologies and opportunities.

USF Health granted $28 million for traumatic brain injury research study
Through a grant from the Florida Legislature with a total allocation of $28 million, USF Health researchers will conduct a clinical trial to study the efficacy of HBOT on individuals with symptoms after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) with or without symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
