Abstract

To determine the degree to which the pattern of intraoperative isolated, unilateral alteration of motor evoked potential (MEP) in intracranial surgery was related to motor outcome and location of new postoperative signal alterations on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In 29 patients (age, 42.8 +/- 18.2 years; 15 female patients; 25 supratentorial, 4 infratentorial procedures), intraoperative MEP alterations in isolation (without significant alteration in other evoked potential modalities) were classified as deterioration (> 50% amplitude decrease and/or motor threshold increase) or loss, respectively, or reversible and irreversible. Postoperative MRI was described for the location and type of new signal alteration. New motor deficit was present in all 5 patients with irreversible MEP loss, in 7 of 10 patients with irreversible MEP deterioration, in 1 of 6 patients with reversible MEP loss, and in 0 of 8 patients with reversible MEP deterioration. Irreversible compared with reversible MEP alteration was significantly more often correlated with postoperative motor deficit (P < .0001). In 20 patients, 22 new signal alterations affected 29 various locations (precentral gyrus, n = 5; corticospinal tract, n = 19). Irreversible MEP a...Continue Reading
