We checked MEP intra-operatively, whenever a dangerous procedure for neural elements was performed, and no abnormal findings were seen during surgery. After the operation, we examine...

متن کاملIntramedullary spinal cord tumors
Comparison of the incidence of the various types of spinal tumors in infancy and childhood to other age groups reveals significant differences, similar to the brain tumors. Compared with intramedullary tumors in adult patients (16%), the incidence of intramedul1ary bIastomas is higher in children and young adults (1-16 years) (25%). Intramedullary tumors become prevalently manifest as gliomas (...
