Central motor and sensory conduction was studied by percutaneous electrical stimulation of brain and spinal cord and by somatosensory evoked potential techniques respectively, in patients with adrenoleukomyeloneuropathy, cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, human T-cell lymphotropic virus-1-associated myelopathy and tabes dorsalis. The results were all consistent with clinical and neuropathological findings in these disorders. Conductions in the corticospinal tract and posterior column could be evaluated separately with these two techniques. Percutaneous electrical stimulation technique would be useful for investigating conduction in the corticospinal tract in patients with spinal cord disorders.
分别采用经皮脑和脊髓电刺激以及体感诱发电位技术,对肾上腺脑白质营养不良、脑腱黄瘤病、人类嗜T细胞病毒1型相关脊髓病和脊髓痨患者进行中枢运动和感觉传导研究。结果均与这些疾病的临床和神经病理学发现一致。这两种技术可分别评估皮质脊髓束和后柱的传导情况。经皮电刺激技术对于研究脊髓疾病患者的皮质脊髓束传导将是有用的。
