“…It is resorted to when conservative management turns out to be ineffective, unable to cope with worsening the problem. To get insight into the causes of the onset and progression of this group of orthopedic diseases, studies of the structural and functional state of the sensorimotor system of patients are carried out using instrumental methods [ 1 , 2 ]. The information obtained that way can also be used to optimize postoperative rehabilitation and further conservative treatment [ 3 ].…”

The aim of the investigation was to study the effect of adverse intraoperative events on the subclinical decrease in the functional state of the sensorimotor system of patients with scoliosis and their early postoperative rehabilitation. Materials and Methods The results of the examination of 30 adolescents of 13–16 years old with scoliosis before and after surgical correction were compared. Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring was used by the method of transcranial evoked motor potentials. The patients were divided into two groups depending on the presence or absence of neurophysiological signs of damage to nerve structures during the operation. Results The amplitude of the M-responses of the muscles of the lower limbs in the postoperative period remains at a level close to the initial one, with a noticeable decrease in the amplitude of voluntary electromyography, which is expressed unevenly and to a greater extent in patients with intraoperative signs of hazard for the motor pathways of the spinal cord. Conclusion Adverse intraoperative events cause significant changes in the state of the motor system of patients with scoliosis and reduce the effectiveness of rehabilitation treatment in the postoperative period.

Neurological examination plays the main role in diagnostic and management of radiculopathies. In addition, the instrumental methods could be used for diagnosis of the morphological and functional state of paraspinal muscles. Paraspinal muscles are symmetrical back muscles surrounding the spinal column and supporting it. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as well as needle electromyography (EMG) and ultrasound are used for instrumental diagnosis of paraspinal muscles conditions. We provide the review on the current scope of studies on radiculopathies and non-specific back pain. MRI is the principle standard for radiculopathy diagnosis, but other methods such as muscle ultrasound and needle electromyography are also used here. MRI is characterized by a high cost, and it is impossible to carry it out if there are magnetic objects present in the patient’s body. EMG and ultrasound both are not sufficient enough to study the level of the fatty replacement of the paraspinal muscle, while this parameter is quite significant for measuring a radiculopathy outcome. Thus, we consider it rational to recommend using these methods in combination. Indications for the combined examination may be such complex cases as anatomical anomalies of spinal roots, atypical disease pattern.
