Spinal Fellowship Posts:
James Cook University Hospital,Middlesborough, UK,
Speciality: Spine, Spinal deformity, Trauma, Paediatric Orthopaedics
Aims of Fellowship: The department offers two posts for spinal fellowship training. The first is shared between Professor C. G. Greenough (Orthopaedic Spinal Surgeon) and Mr S. M. Marks (Spinal Neurosurgeon) and the second fellow works mainly with myself. The first post is for one year and targets UK nationals/Commonwealth candidates with an interest in the degenerative and injured spine. The post is recognized by both Orthopaedics and Neurosurgery for Higher Specialist Training. It is available for both Orthopaedic and Neurosurgical candidates. The fellow is required to have the basic surgical spinal skills and be able to operate independently for simple discectomies or decompressions beforehand. The fellow is on call for spinal injuries only (for the moment). The second fellow is following my work, which comprises all aspects of spinal surgery in relatively equal measure (although sometimes the waiting list targets skew temporarily the activity). We operate on deformity of every age and every cause (idiopathic-neuromuscular-congenital-posttraumatic etc scoliosis and kyphosis), trauma (with and without neurology), infection, metastatic spinal disease and the painful spine. Operations such as discectomy, fusions, PLIF, ALIF, artificial discs, thoracic discs, myelopathy and kyphoplasty, together with more minor, such as facet blocks, epidurals, nerve blocks etc are the norm. We manage approximately 130-150 operative procedures per year, employing anterior, posterior and combined approaches, throughout the spine, from the base of the skull to the sacrum. There is a common clinic with the Neurosurgeons for difficult cases and additional common operating lists with them as and when required (i.e. Chiari malformation, tethered cord, syringomyelia etc). There are two all day operating lists for elective surgery per week and whatever additional for emergency cases is needed through the everyday Trauma list. The post is an evolution of a former Staff-Grade post and as such there is no formalised on call activity. The post is so far not recognized, since spinal surgery in Middlesbrough is relatively new and funding has been relatively scarce. The post is open to people from all over the world with a serious interest in spinal surgery, whether from Orthopaedics or Neurosurgery (although the latter are in the UK intimidated by the deformity workload; not so foreign candidates). A serious commitment to Audit and Research (rather difficult nowadays) is required. A prior basic knowledge of spinal surgery is a prerequisite in this post too. The post lasts until the fellow performs the most part of 200 procedures independently as a minimum; or if he/she wants to leave earlier.
