My guess is none (worldwide) do splicing of the spinal cord; 50,000 hospitals do fusing of disks and similar proceedures; one million hospitals etc do emergincy spinal surgery when no other reasonable option (mostly 3d world countries) is available or the surgery is minor. In the USA, patients are often flown by heliocoptor to top centers for the most difficult operations. Neil |

Thanks. My question relates to orthopedic back surgery. There are roughly 6,000 hospitals in the US, but I do not believe all of them offer back surgery. Neurosurgery (spinal cord) is something different. |
