Dr. Lonner completed my scoliosis surgery almost twenty years ago. I recently saw him for a follow-up visit. His expertise, professionalism, and genuine concern is unmatched. Although I don’t see him often, it’s always nice to visit him and his office staff. The quality of care that he provides has remained consistent throughout the years. You can read all about his stellar work online, but his character, patience, and due diligence shines most. ~ Google
Understanding Adult Scoliosis
Adult scoliosis is a condition in which the spine curves abnormally to the side, often accompanied by rotation of the vertebrae. It may be the progression of adolescent scoliosis that went untreated or a degenerative condition known as adult-onset scoliosis, which develops due to wear and tear on spinal discs and joints over time. Symptoms may include:
- Chronic lower back pain
- Postural imbalance or leaning
- Sciatica or leg pain due to nerve compression
- Fatigue during standing or walking
- Reduced mobility and flexibility
When conservative treatments such as physical therapy, injections, or bracing no longer provide relief, surgical intervention may be the most effective path forward.

Surgical Approaches for Adult Scoliosis
We offer a variety of advanced procedures to correct spinal curvature and decompress affected nerves, including:
- Posterior Spinal Fusion: A common technique that stabilizes and realigns the spine using rods, screws, and bone grafts to create a solid, straight fusion of the affected vertebrae.
- Osteotomy Procedures: For rigid curves or fixed spinal deformities, strategic bone removal may be necessary to realign the spine and restore balance.
- Decompression with Fusion: In patients with spinal stenosis or nerve root compression, decompression surgery may be combined with fusion to relieve symptoms and prevent further progression.
All surgeries are performed with intraoperative neuromonitoring and the latest navigation technologies to ensure maximum safety and accuracy.
