On July 26, 2024, Dr. Albert Wong lectured and trained neurosurgery residents, spine fellows, and attendings at the world-renowned Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, AZ, sharing evidence-based outcomes and advanced techniques for cervical and lumbar artificial disc replacement to improve motion preservation and surgical precision.
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Dr. Albert Wong, a leading neurosurgeon renowned for his expertise in motion-preserving spine surgery, recently lectured and trained residents, fellows, and attending neurosurgeons at the globally acclaimed Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, Arizona. This event marked a significant milestone in expanding the knowledge base of spine arthroplasty techniques among the next generation of neurosurgeons and specialists.
The comprehensive course included both didactic lectures and cadaver-based training, with a focus on cervical and lumbar artificial disc replacement. Dr. Wong shared evidence-based outcomes that demonstrate the advantages of artificial disc replacements over traditional spinal fusion procedures and emphasized the safest, most effective techniques for spine arthroplasty.
"Barrow Neurological Institute is one of the most prestigious training grounds for neurosurgery, and it was an honor to contribute to the education of future leaders in spine surgery," said Dr. Wong. "This course is instrumental in equipping surgeons with the tools and techniques they need to deliver superior outcomes for their patients."
As part of the course, Dr. Wong guided attendees through complex surgical scenarios, including expanded indications for cervical and lumbar disc replacements and hybrid fusion techniques. His efforts continue to shape the trajectory of spine surgery toward less invasive, more effective solutions for degenerative spinal conditions.
