Skull Base Fellowship

The University of South Florida Department of Neurosurgery and Brain Repair, Cranial Division, offers a one-year, post-graduate, clinical fellowship in Skull Base Neurosurgery.

The chosen fellow is seen as an integral part of the multidisciplinary Center for Vascular and Skull Base Surgery which includes Interventional Neuroradiologists, Otolaryngologists, Neurointensivists, as well as members of our department's cranial division, primarily working alongside Vice-Chair and Cranial Director Siviero Agazzi, MD, and under the guidance of Department Chairman Harry van Loveren, MD. The fellow will spend the entirety of their training at Tampa General Hospital, including USF Health's ambulatory clinics located directly across from TGH.

The fellow is involved in all aspects of care including preoperative evaluation, non-operative management, operative planning and execution, as well as postoperative care and follow up. USF is a regional referral center for complex skull base and vascular conditions; over 200 aneurysms are treated annually using a variety of approaches. During this fellowship the fellow will be exposed to and gain skill with a multitude of skull base approaches as well as complex aneurysm reconstruction and bypass techniques.
