Upper Back Fusion Surgery for Pain

The provider performs arthrodesis, also known as spinal fusion, in the upper back, to permanently join two vertebrae, the interlocking bones of the spine, to alleviate persistent pain caused by a herniated, or bulging, disk, or other spinal condition. The provider makes an incision in the side of the chest to access the spine and remove disk material. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
