Something New For Lumbar Stenosis
Superion® Interspinous Spacer Clinical Trial
This looks like a good thing in that it seems reversible and surgeon proof. It's in clinical trials so don't hold you breath. You can see about getting in a clinical trial.  It is far less disruptive than an ADR and it looks like a monkey could install it.

Nothing new...
From preliminary experience in Croatia, Coflex gives better results than Superion. Coflex also has more wide indication than Superion. From some of the studies I ran into, Coflex is rated as one of the best interspinous implants. Regards
