Dr. Ajakwe performed a two-level Vertiflex procedure on a patient suffering from lumbar spinal stenosis, secondary to neurogenic claudication. The Superion implant acts as an extension blocker and is ideal for patients who have difficulty walking or standing but experience relief in the seated or flexed position. Superion was developed to provide patients with a safe and effective alternative when conservative treatment has failed and laminectomy is too aggressive.
