Cervical & Thoracic Services:
Anterior Cervical Discectomy: A surgical procedure to treat nerve root or spinal cord compression by decompressing the spinal cord and nerve roots of the cervical spine with a discectomy in order to stabilize the corresponding vertebrae.
Anterior Cervical Corpectomy: A surgical procedure in which vertebral bone and intervertebral disc material is removed to relieve pressure on the spin.
Artificial Cervical Disc Replacement: A surgical procedure in which a damaged or degenerated cervical disc is removed and replacing it with an artificial disc device.
Posterior Cervical Laminectomy: A surgical procedure in which the bony roof (or laminae) of the spinal canal, as well as any soft tissue which may also be causing compression is carefully removed to relieve pressure on the spinal cord and nerves.
Instrumented Fusion: A procedure in which instruments such as rods, plates, and screws are used to help bones in the spine fuse, or grow together.
Kyphoplasty: An image-guided procedure in which a balloon is inserted into a fractured vertebra to create a cavity. A special bone cement is injected into the cavity to stabilize the bone and prevent worsening of the fracture. Kyphoplasty is often used to treat spinal compression fractures.
Thoracic Spine Fusion: A spinal fusion performed in order to provide spinal decompression and pain relief due to compressed nerves in the spine, lower and middle back.
