SUMMARY OF CURRICULUM VITAE : A. LEE DELLON, M.D. 

A. Lee Dellon, M.D. graduated from Johns Hopkins University in 1966 and from the Johns 

Hopkins School of Medicine in 1970. He then completed eight years of additional training, including two 

years of research at the National Cancer Institute, Surgery Branch, of the National Institutes of Health.




He completed a Plastic Surgery Residency at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and a Hand Surgery Fellowship 

at the Raymond M. Curtis Hand Center, both in Baltimore. Dr. Dellon has received the Certificate of 

Added Qualifications in Hand Surgery and is Board Certified in Plastic Surgery. He is currently a 

Professor of Plastic Surgery and a Professor of Neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of 

Medicine, Clinical Professor of Plastic Surgery at the University of Maryland and Clinical Professor of 

Plastic Surgery, Neurosurgery and Anatomy at the University of Arizona. 

Doctor Dellon’s research interests center on neural regeneration. In the basic research laboratory, 

his work included models for peripheral nerve compression, neuroma treatment, neural regeneration 

through absorbable conduits, and diabetic neuropathy. Dr. Dellon’s clinical work is focused on 

computer-linked devices to measure sensibility, treatment strategies for pain due to neuroma, use of 

bioabsorbable tubes as a substitute for nerve grafts, treatment of facial pain and of groin pain, and 

treatment of the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy, whether due to diabetes or unknown causes. 

He has won 22 national research awards, including the Radium Society Award in 1974, the Cleft 

Palate Award in 1977, and the Emanuel Kaplan Hand Surgery Award in 1985. Educational Foundation 

Awards from the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery include those for the 

immunobiology of skin cancer, prediction of recurrence in non-melanoma skin cancer, partial-thickness 

skin excision for treatment of benign dyskeratosis, surgical treatment of symptoms of diabetic 

neuropathy, neurosensory testing, nerve decompression in leprosy, and partial joint denervation. 

Doctor Dellon is the author of four books, 71 book chapters, and more than 370 articles 

published in peer-reviewed journals. He is on the Editorial Boards of Journal of Reconstructive 

Microsurgery, Journal of Clinical and Experimental Plastic Surgery, and The Journal of Hand Surgery. 

He has been on the Editorial Boards of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Annals of Plastic Surgery, 

Microsurgery, Peripheral Nerve Regeneration and Repair, Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, Journal 

of Hand Therapy, and Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association. 

Doctor Dellon is a founding member and past president of the American Society for Peripheral 

Nerve. He is also currently Vice President of the American Society of Reconstructive Microsurgery. He 

is the Director of the Dellon Institutes for Peripheral Nerve Surgery®, with Institutes in Baltimore, 

Maryland, Tucson, Arizona, Boston, Massachusetts, and Las Vegas, Nevada.
