Delayed cervical somatosensory potentials in cervical spondylosis.

E El Negamy, E M Sedgwick
PMCID: PMC490726  PMID: 438832

Abstract

The cervical somatosensory evoked potential after median nerve stimulation was recorded in 14 patients with cervical spondylosis with radiculopathy and, in 10 cases, myelopathy. Four patients had normal potentials, five showed delayed potentials, and in five others no potential could be seen.
