Background: Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) has been widely applied in brain vascular surgeries to reduce postoperative neurologic deficit (PND). This study aimed investigate the effect of IONM during clipping unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs). Methods: Between January 2013 and August 2020, we enrolled 193 patients with 202 UIAs N group (clipping without IONM) 319 343 M IONM). Patients were intraoperatively monitored for motor evoked potentials (MEPs) somatosensory...
Retrospective study.The purpose of this study was to assess the diagnostic usefulness flexion-extension central motor conduction time(CMCT) for patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM).Previous reports have suggested that cord compression can be aggravated by neck motions. Thus, importance dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been emphasized. However, authors found no conducted at time research on whether CMCT useful detecting myelopathy.We enrolled 227 CSM study. We...
We investigated the thermographic findings of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). enrolled 304 hands with electrodiagnostically identified CTS and 88 control hands. were assigned to duration groups (D1, < 3 months; D2, 3‒6 D3, 6‒12 D4, ≥ 12 months) severity (S1, very mild; S2, S3, moderate; S4, severe). The temperature difference between median ulnar nerve territories (ΔM-U territories) decreased as increased. Significant differences in ΔM-U D1 D2 S1 S4 (P = 0.003, 0.001, respectively) observed....
Background: Spinal cord infarction (SCI) is a rare disease and its early diagnosis challenging. Here, we described the clinical features imaging findings of SCI, assessed results evoked potential (EP) studies to elucidate their diagnostic role in stage SCI. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 14 patients who had spontaneous The demographic, neurological, temporal profiles SCI were identified. reviewed changes them over time. To review EP, central motor conduction time (CMCT) somatosensory...
Superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass is a surgical treatment for ischemic stroke caused by large occlusion. Intraoperative neuropsychological monitoring (IONM) useful ensuring perfusion. Herein, we report 5 cases of patients with who underwent STA-MCA IONM. We investigated whether the improved perfusion was reflected in real time on evoked potentials (EP) To measure changes perfusion, all pre- and post-operative perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI). Additionally,...
We investigated evoked potential (EP) changes during superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral (STA-MCA) bypass surgery and their correlations with imaging clinical findings postoperatively.This retrospective study included patients who underwent STA-MCA due ischemic stroke large occlusion (MB group). Patients unruptured MCA aneurysm clipping were enrolled in the control group (MC Median tibial somatosensory potentials (SSEP), motor recorded from abductor pollicis brevis (APB-MEP)...
To investigate patients presenting non-lesional side evoked potential (EP) deterioration without lesional EP change during unruptured intracranial aneurysm (UIA) clipping surgery. This single-center, retrospective study included who underwent single UIA with intraoperative neuromonitoring between March 2017 and December 2021. For targeting lateralized surgery group, we the UIAs located in middle cerebral artery bifurcation, artery, anterior choroidal internal carotid artery. Motor potentials...
Neurologic deficit after cervical decompressive surgery for spondylotic myelopathy is a rare but critical complication. Spinal cord reperfusion injury one of the major causes sudden neurologic deterioration associated with surgery. If occurs during surgery, intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring essential early diagnosis and intervention including surgical modification maintaining proper mean blood pressure to reverse damage. We review in myelopathy.
