Back and Neck Treatments

Orthopedic treatments for your back and neck pain may include a combination of non-surgical and surgical interventions, depending on the underlying cause and severity of the condition. Cone Health OrthoCare surgeons are highly trained in the latest techniques and technologies for diagnosing and treating spinal conditions, and we work closely with you to develop individualized treatment plans that address your specific needs and goals.

Common Neck and Back Procedures

Cone Health OrthoCare surgeons specialize in a variety of neck and spine procedures including:

  • Spinal fusion - surgical procedure to join two or more vertebrae together to stabilize the spine and reduce pain.

  • Discectomy - surgical procedure to remove part or all of a damaged or herniated disc in the spine to relieve pressure on the nerves.

  • Laminectomy - surgical procedure to remove a portion of the bone covering the spinal canal to relieve pressure on the nerves.

  • Foraminotomy - surgical procedure remove bone or tissue that is compressing a spinal nerve.

  • Vertebroplasty - minimally invasive procedure that involves injecting a cement-like substance into a fractured vertebra to stabilize the bone.

  • Kyphoplasty - minimally invasive procedure that involves inserting a balloon-like device into a fractured vertebra to create space, followed by injecting a cement-like substance to stabilize the bone.

  • Artificial disc replacement - surgical procedure that involves removing a damaged disc and replacing it with an artificial disc to preserve motion and flexibility in the spine.
