Mount Carmel provides careful and
comprehensive surgical treatment of spinal cord diseases and injuries. With
their skill and experience in treating vertebral disorders, including tumors,
herniated discs, degenerative disc disease and arthritis of the spine, our
board-certified neurosurgeons utilize sophisticated surgical techniques to
perform procedures such as:
- Spinal
fusion and fixation
- Endoscopic
lumbar discectomy
- Kyphoplasty
- Laminectomy
- Discectomy
- Lumbar
and cervical artificial disc replacement
Mount Carmel surgeons have an array of
precision technology at their disposal as well. In fact, Mount
Carmel was the first Columbus-area hospital to operate the Stealth
Station - a computer-aided, image-guided navigation system that allows surgeons
to clearly perform delicate spinal procedures with precise and correct
placement of spinal hardware. We also
have the technology to perform spinal cord monitoring throughout the surgical
case to further ensure patient safety.
To
further advance the specialty, we regularly participate in cutting-edge spinal
research.
