This study aims to evaluate the application of multimodal intraoperative monitoring (MIOM) in surgical treatment for spine burst fracture and dislocation (SBFD) patients.Eleven patients who underwent posterior reduction and instrumentation (PRI) for SBFD from June 2014 to July 2016 were included into the study. The function of the spinal cord was monitored by MIOM. The muscle strength of the lower extremities and American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) scores were, respectively, evaluated (before surgery, and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery). Furthermore, the extent of reduction was also assessed.Muscle strength recovery, ASIA score changes, and the extent of reduction were correlated with MIOM results. Among the 11 patients who received surgery under MIOM, 8 patients with negative MIOM results during the operation did not demonstrate neurological deterioration postoperatively and exhibited improvements in ASIA scores during follow-ups. However, among the 3 patients who encountered MIOM events (case 4, 7, and 8), 2 patients avoided nerve lesion and 1 patient suffered from neurologic deterioration postoperatively.The application of MIOM technology during PRI surgery may detect spinal cord impairment at the early stage, and operative schemes can be modified before permanent nerve compromise is triggered by surgical manipulation.
