Dr. Brian Perri specializes in reconstructive surgery for
spinal tumors and deformities, as well as minimally invasive and
motion preservation surgery for degenerative spinal diseases.
Dr.
Perri's research interests include traumatic spinal cord injury and
therapies for subsequent neuroprotection and recovery. He also has
conducted research on artificial disc replacement and its potential
postoperative complications, and he developed a classification system
for cervical kyphotic deformities with strategies and techniques
for surgical reconstruction. Dr. Perri has advanced thoracoscopic
sympathectomy surgery to a more minimally invasive procedure using
only two pinhole incisions under each arm. He has presented his findings

the official journal of the North American Spine Society. He also
co-authored surgical textbook chapters on subjects including the
complications and treatments of anterior cervical spine surgery,
surgical treatment of acute cervical fractures, techniques for
cervical-thoracic pedicle subtraction osteotomy for correction
of cervical kyphosis, and thoracoscopic sympathectomy for treatment
of hyperhidrosis.
