Pre-Operational and Post-Operational Motor Stimulated Potential, Electrophysiological Conduction Studies in Patients with Tethered Cord Syndrome, Neurological Examination and Comparison of Lumbosacral MRG Investigations

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Tethered Cord Syndrome (TCS) is a progressive neurologic disorder that is often overlooked in adults, especially in the pre-MRI era. However, it is still unknown whether electrophysiologic studies have any value in determining the outcome of surgery or their usefulness in follow-up. In this study, we aimed to describe the potential of preoperative motor evoked potentials (MEPs) to predict the response to surgical treatment and the change in MEP values after surgery in patients diagnosed with TCS.
