Luke D. Tomycz, M.D.

Dr. Tomycz specializes in all aspects of pediatric neurosurgery including brain tumors, epilepsy, spinal deformity, Chiari malformation, tethered cord syndrome, CSF shunting, and intracranial endoscopy. As one of the only dual-trained, pediatric and endovascular neurosurgeons in the country, he is particularly interested in moya-moya disease, brain aneurysms and AVMs, arteriovenous fistulae, and other complex neurovascular disorders in children as well as adults. His current research interests include the use of engineering innovations to improve treatments for hydrocephalus, and he has published over 20 peer-reviewed articles and book chapters on a wide variety of neurosurgical topics. He was asked to curate and edit a special edition on hydrocephalus for the journal Pediatric Neurosurgery, and in the past year he has been invited to speak nationally and internationally at neurosurgical conferences. He was recently elected to be a member of the AANS/CNS Young Neurosurgeons committee.
