He operated on another person from the TC forum with a successful outcome as well. it is worth your while to consult with him.i think his # is 215 829 6700 but would not swear to it. that is just from memory.

Mary Jane, I did call today. Thank you for your reply. Christina said that I first need to have had either aspiration or fibrin glue procedures first that were unsuccessful before he would operate on them and said that they actually take them out; although I explained that they are nerves and how is the nerve removed she kept repeating that it was a cyst around the nerve and it was removed and replaced with a muscle flap. I didn't go any further. Can you enlighten me more how this went for you?
