I am 60 years old, have a T6-L5 fusion and have developed a 90 degree kyphosis. I have been advised by Erich Buchl (an associate of Dr. Shelokov's) that revision surgery (with a T2 to pelvis fusion) is advisable. I had an appointment with Dr. Shelokov but as he has recently passed away, need to find another doctor.
I am considering Dr. Richard Hostin, Dr. Larry Lenke, and Dr. Michael LaGrone. Does anyone have any experience with any of these surgeons regarding revision surgery?
Also, I am interested in the experiences of older patients who have had revision surgery.
Thank you very much for any help you can give me.
