Postoperative MD rates in IMSCT and EMSCT surgeries using TcMEP monitoring were 25% and 6%, and rescue rates were 29% and 55%. We believe that the usage of TcMEP monitoring and appropriate intervention techniques during SCT surgeries might have predicted and prevented the occurrence of intraoperative MDs.
