Welcome to the Complex Spine Fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania!
Our goal is to expose our fellows to a great variety of cases within the field of spine surgery. Together with our world-renowned faculty, fellows will have an opportunity to learn and advance their skills throughout the entire spectrum of spine surgery. Training will encompass simple and complex degenerative spine disease, minimally invasive spine surgery, deformity, spinal oncology, and trauma. Fellows will have opportunities to learn complex deformity surgical techniques such PSO, VCR, minimally invasive surgical techniques such as endoscopic spine surgery, advanced lateral techniques (anterior-to-psoas, lateral ALIF), spine robotics, complex oncologic tumor resections, and others. At the University of Pennsylvania, we perform over 2000 spine surgeries yearly, and are staffed by 10 board-certified spine-focused orthopedic and neurosurgeons.
