Your Spine, Your Plan

Learn about Dr. DelSole's approach to patient-specific spine care.

Specialized Spine Care

Comprehensive surgical treatment for the full spectrum of spinal conditions, from minimally invasive approaches to complex reconstructive procedures.

Degenerative Spine Conditions

Surgical treatment for disc herniations, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and degenerative disc disease when conservative measures have been exhausted.

Adult Spinal Deformity

Complex reconstructive surgery for adult scoliosis, kyphosis, flatback syndrome, and sagittal imbalance including osteotomy techniques for severe deformities.

Spinal Trauma

Reconstructive surgery for complex cervical, thoracolumbar, and spinopelvic fractures and dislocations, including polytrauma patients.

Spinal Tumors

Surgical management of primary and metastatic tumors of the spine, including en bloc resection and stabilization procedures for oncologic conditions.

Motion-Sparing Surgery

Cervical and lumbar disc replacement and other motion-preserving technologies designed to maintain spinal mobility while addressing pathology.

Revision Spine Surgery

Complex revision procedures for patients with failed prior spine surgery, including pseudarthrosis, adjacent segment disease, and hardware complications.

Comprehensive Spine Care

Dr. DelSole evaluates and treats a wide range of conditions affecting the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine.

Cervical Spine

  • Cervical disc herniation
  • Cervical spinal stenosis
  • Cervical myelopathy
  • Cervical radiculopathy
  • Cervical fractures and dislocations
  • Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL)

Thoracic & Lumbar Spine

  • Lumbar disc herniation
  • Lumbar spinal stenosis
  • Degenerative spondylolisthesis
  • Isthmic spondylolisthesis
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Thoracolumbar fractures

Complex Conditions

  • Adult scoliosis
  • Kyphosis and flatback syndrome
  • Spinal tumors (primary and metastatic)
  • Spinal infections
  • Pseudarthrosis (failed fusion)
  • Adjacent segment disease

Procedures Performed

A comprehensive range of cervical, thoracic, and lumbar surgical procedures tailored to each patient's specific condition and anatomy.

01

Anterior Cervical Discectomy & Fusion (ACDF)

Removal of damaged cervical discs with fusion to relieve nerve compression and stabilize the spine.

02

Cervical Disc Replacement

Motion-preserving artificial disc implantation as an alternative to cervical fusion for select patients.

03

Posterior Cervical Laminectomy & Fusion

Decompression of the spinal cord through a posterior approach with instrumented fusion for multilevel cervical stenosis.

04

Lumbar Microdiscectomy

Minimally invasive removal of herniated disc material compressing spinal nerves causing leg pain.

05

Lumbar Decompression & Fusion

Laminectomy with instrumented fusion for spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and instability.

06

Lateral Interbody Fusion (LLIF/XLIF)

Minimally invasive lateral approach for disc removal and interbody cage placement, avoiding major muscle disruption.

07

Spinal Deformity Correction

Complex reconstructive osteotomies and long-segment fusions for adult scoliosis, kyphosis, and sagittal imbalance.

08

Spinal Tumor Resection & Reconstruction

Surgical excision of spinal tumors with reconstruction and stabilization of the affected spinal segments.
