Complete Surgical Care for Spinal Conditions
The Orthwein Brain & Spine Center at St. Luke’s provides comprehensive care for a wide range of spinal conditions. Whether you have an acute injury; a degenerative condition like disc herniations (rupture of a bone in the spinal column) or spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal column); or a more complex issue, such as a spinal tumor, we are here to help you find relief and improve your quality of life.
Spine Surgery Options
Our expert team offers several spine surgery options tailored to your specific needs:
Laminectomy
A laminectomy removes part of the vertebra called the lamina to create more space for the spinal cord or nerves, often used to treat spinal stenosis.
Spinal Fusion
Spinal fusion permanently connects two or more vertebrae to stabilize the spine, reduce pain and improve function in cases of severe degenerative conditions or deformities.
