Here, we report a case of a patient with type 3 thoracolumbar scoliosis whose surgery was stopped due to loss of signal in the neuromonitoring over the right lower limb in the exposure stage, before instrumentation and manipulation. The patient had right lower limb weakness and hence the surgery was abandoned. The same abnormality was present when we tried surgery for the second time. Surgery was aborted and the potentials recovered and the patient woke up without disability. In summary, this case illustrates that changes in MEPs can occur even at early stages in more vulnerable cases and is to be looked for to avoid disability.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.338722","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,21]],"date-time":"2024-02-21T00:38:10Z","timestamp":1708475890000},"page":"363-365","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Loss of Motor Evoked Potential in the Exposure Stage of Scoliosis Surgery in a Patient with Kyphoscoliosis"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"70","author":[{"given":"Vani","family":"Vijay","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anoop","family":"Thomas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sajesh K","family":"Menon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-72-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"765","DOI":"10.12998\/wjcc.v3.i9.765","article-title":"Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring in spinal surgery","volume":"3","author":"Park","year":"2015","journal-title":"World J Clin Cases"},{"key":"R2-72-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"135","DOI":"10.1302\/2058-5241.2.170002","article-title":"Correction manoeuvres in the surgical treatment of spinal deformities","volume":"2","author":"Senkoylu","year":"2017","journal-title":"EFORT Open Rev"},{"key":"R3-72-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e1","DOI":"10.1097\/WNP.0000000000000026","article-title":"Loss of lower limb motor evoked potentials and spinal cord injury during the initial exposure in scoliosis surgery","volume":"31","author":"Legatt","year":"2014","journal-title":"J Clin Neurophysiol"},{"key":"R4-72-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"12","DOI":"10.1186\/s13013-018-0161-3","article-title":"Systematic re-evaluation of intraoperative motor-evoked potential suppression in scoliosis surgery","volume":"13","author":"Lo","year":"2018","journal-title":"Scoliosis Spinal Disord"},{"key":"R5-72-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"560","DOI":"10.1097\/ACO.0b013e32830f1fbd","article-title":"Multimodality monitoring of the central nervous system using motor-evoked potentials","volume":"21","author":"Sloan","year":"2008","journal-title":"Curr Opin Anaesthesiol"},{"key":"R6-72-20240907","first-page":"339","article-title":"Loss of intraoperative neurological monitoring signals during flexed prone positioning on a hinged open frame during surgery for kyphoscoliosis correction: Case report","volume":"29","author":"Graham","year":"2018","journal-title":"J Neurosurg"},{"key":"R7-72-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"206","DOI":"10.1302\/1863-2548.13.180102","article-title":"Positional disappearance of motor evoked potentials is much more likely to occur in non-idiopathic scoliosis","volume":"13","author":"Rizkallah","year":"2019","journal-title":"J Child Orthop"}],"container-title":["Neurology India"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/0028-3886.338722","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,26]],"date-time":"2026-08-26T19:41:29Z","timestamp":1787773289000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/0028-3886.338722"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,1]]},"references-count":7,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/0028-3886.338722","relation":{},"ISSN":["0028-3886"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0028-3886","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,1]]}}}
