dc.description.abstract | Purpose: Retethering of the cord can occur after the initial untethering surgery. Typical neurological manifestations indicative of cord tethering are often difficult to determine in pediatric patients. Patients who had a primary untethering operation are likely to present with some degree of neurological deficits from a previous tethering event, and urodynamic studies (UDSs) and spine images are frequently abnormal. Therefore, more objective tools to detect retethering are needed. This study sought to delineate the characteristics of EDS of retethering, and therefore, could support the diagnosis of retethering. Methods: Among 692 subjects who had an untethering operation, data from 93 subjects who had been suspected of retethering clinically were retrospectively extracted. The subjects were divided into two groups, a retethered group, and a non-progression group, according to whether or not surgical interventions had been performed. Two consecutive EDSs, clinical findings, spine magnetic resonance imaging scans, and UDSs before the development of new tethering symptoms were reviewed and compared. Results: In the electromyography (EMG) study, the appearance of abnormal spontaneous activity (ASA) in new muscles was prominent in the retethered group (p < 0.01). The loss of ASA was more pronounced in the non-progression group (p < 0.01). Specificity and sensitivity of EMG for retethering were 80.4 and 56.5%, respectively. In the nerve conduction study, the two groups did not show differences. The size of fibrillation potential was not different between the groups. Conclusions: To provide support for a clinician’s decision on retethering, EDS could be an advantageous tool with high specificity when the results are compared to previous EDS results. Routine follow-up EDS post-operatively is recommended as a baseline for comparison at the time when retethering is clinically suspected. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Austria, part of Springer Nature. | - |
