An increase in the latency of a motor evoked potential might be as significant as a decrease in amplitude to predict a significant and clinically symptomatic neurological injury in spinal surgery for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of monitoring of latency of motor evoked potentials during spinal surgery for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis by describing intraoperative data.Preoperative recordings of 50 patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion for idiopathic scoliosis were studied. Latencies of appearance of the motor evoked potential curves on the right and left side were recorded for each group of muscles at several key moments during the procedure (basal, before the first implant, before and after corrective maneuvers).Mean latencies were approximately the same in each muscle group on the right and the left side, before and after correction. There was no significant increase in latency during surgery. Overall results showed that the measured latency did not differ significantly between the two age groups (p=0.07). Negative correlation between height and the means of latencies was recorded in the abductor pollicis brevis and abductor digiti minimi (r=0.4; p=0.009), rectus femoris (r=0.4; p=0.01), tibialis anterior (r=0.4; p=0.007), and abductor hallucis (r=0.5; p=0.0004). No significant correlation was found between age and intraoperative parameters.Intraoperative latency could be a reliable intraoperative monitoring criteria with low variability, that might be used to predict postoperative motor deficits in surgery for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. |
