The value of somatosensory and motor-evoked potentials in predicting and monitoring the effect of therapy in spondylotic cervical myelopathy. (Prospective randomised study).

Original language description

Study design. A two-year follow-up prospective randomised electrophysiological and clinical study was performed in patients with spondylotic cervical myelopathy. Objective. To assess the value of somatosensory (SEP) and motor evoked potentials (MEP) in the evaluation and prediction of the effect of therapy. Summary of background data. Previous studies have yielded conflicting data concerning the correlation between the changes in evoked potential parameters and the clinical post-surgical outcome in spondylotic cervical myelopathy (SCM). Methods. Sixty-one patients with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signs of spondylotic cervical cord compression and clinical signs of cervical myelopathy were divided into two groups according to the degree of clinicalcervical cord involvement. Forty-nine patients with mild and moderate SCM were randomised into groups that underwent either surgical or conservative therapy. Patients were evaluated clinically and by the means of SEP and MEP.
