Dr. Firas Husban is a consultant spine surgeon with over 25 years of international experience. He was among the first to introduce minimally invasive spine surgery techniques and modern scoliosis approaches to the Middle East, gaining recognition in both Arab and international media. He previously served as Head of Spine Surgery at Al Hussain Medical City Hospital and holds fellowships from Germany and Switzerland in spine surgery and pediatric spine care.
Dr. Husban treats a wide range of spinal conditions across the cervical (neck), thoracic (mid-back), and lumbar (lower-back) regions. His expertise includes minimally invasive approaches such as lateral access fusion (DLIF, OLIF), percutaneous fixation, and endoscopic disc removal. He is particularly renowned for scoliosis management in both children and adults, using advanced techniques including vertebral body tethering (VBT)—a less invasive alternative to fusion. He also manages osteoporotic fractures, spinal tumours, revision surgeries, and deformity correction procedures.
Dr. Husban is a good choice if you need complex spine surgery performed with minimally invasive techniques, require scoliosis or deformity correction, or are seeking a second opinion on revision spine procedures. His combination of advanced training, high surgical volume, and focus on preserving spinal function makes him suitable for patients of all ages.
Special interests: vertebral body tethering for scoliosis, lateral access fusion techniques, pediatric scoliosis management.
