[Changes in the somatosensory evoked potentials of patients with complicated spinal trauma after an omentomyelopexy operation].

The purpose of the study was to record somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP) to objectify the results omentomyelopexy in late spinal cord injury. SSEP were recorded in 25 patients in leads of three levels of the somatosensory tract (from the popliteal fossa, from the lumbar enlargement of the spinal cord, and from the surface of the skull in the region of projection of leg presentation in cerebral hemispherical cortex) before and after surgery. The study indicated that there were no pre- or postoperative records of cortical evoked potentials.

[The results of omentomyelopexy in the late period of traumatic spinal cord disease].

The results of omental transplantation to the site of spinal cord lesion in 40 patients in late injury are given. Neurological deficit was alleviated in 17.5% of patients.

[The late-period results of surgical treatment for trauma to the cervical spine and spinal cord].

Seven patients with late-stage spinal cord injury (SCI) at the cervical level were operated on 2 to 11 months following the accident. To assess the preoperative status and the results of surgical treatment, the ASIA motor scoring system was utilized. In 6 cases anterior decompression was combined with a strut graft fusion, one patient was managed via posterior approach, i.
