dc.description.abstractIn this study, determination of the utility of DSEPs in patients with unilateral lumbosacral radiculopathy due to herniated intervertebral disc for diagnosing, planning the management and obtaining information about prognosis was purposed. Scalp-recorded somatosensory evoked potentials to electrical stimulation in L5 and S1 dermatomes in 31 patients and 26 normal subjects were examined. Abnormal DSEP recordings were obtained by comparing with normal values derived from studies of normal subjects. DSEP recordings were compared with the results of computed tomography and electromyographic studies of the same patients. All of the patients had conservative therapy, and physical examination and DSEP studies of 23 patients were reevaluated after three months and improvement of the clinical and DSEP findings were compared in each patient. DSEP sensitivity of 31 patients is 77.4 %. Absent responses were associated with acute lesions and with low back pain in extension. DSEP findings after three months perfectly reflected either clinical improvement or continuation of symptoms and clinical findings. It was concluded that, (1) there is no superiority of DSEP to the other studies in identifying unilateral lumbosacral radiculopathy due to herniated intervertebral disc, if technical and interpretational differences are removed, diagnostic utility of DSEPs will increase (2) DSEPs have a prognostic utility to follow the patients' courses.en_US
