Adult Spine Surgery

If you’ve been living with back or neck pain for years, you’re not alone. An estimated 75-85% of Americans struggle with some form of back pain at some point in their lives, but you don’t have to keep living in pain. The caring specialists at the Spine Center at Tulane Orthopaedics are here to help you take the first step toward lasting relief.

At Tulane, we prioritize your comfort and quality of life. Surgery is always a last resort. Our team works with you one-on-one to explore conservative treatments first, such as physical therapy, advanced pain management, and personalized care plans tailored to your lifestyle. Our goal is simple: to help you return to doing the things you love, without pain holding you back.

When surgery is necessary, you’ll know you’re in the hands of experts who use the most advanced techniques available today. From motion-preserving procedures such as cervical disc replacement and laminoplasty, to robotic-guided minimally invasive surgeries with ExcelsiusGPS™, our surgeons deliver precise and effective results with faster recovery times.

Dr. Mathew Cyriac, Dr. Leland McCluskey, and Bryan Seely, PA, specialize in treating even the most complex spine problems, including conditions that haven’t improved with past treatments or surgeries. Dr. Cyriac, in particular, is recognized for his expertise in extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF), a cutting-edge approach that can relieve chronic back and leg pain when other treatments have failed.

Whether you’re suffering from herniated discs, spinal deformities, failed back surgery syndrome, or persistent pain that’s never gone away, our team is ready to find the solution that’s right for you.
