The reduction of postoperative complication rate is a significant trend in modern surgery. One of the most important methods of intraoperative diagnostics is intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM). The aim of the research was to assess capabilities of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring in neurosurgical practice considering literature data and experience of IONM application in the Center of Neurosurgery Railway Clinical Hospital at the Ir-kutsk-Passazhirskiy Railway Station of Russian Railways Ltd. We conducted 17 surgeriesusing IONM. We described the procedure, analyzed data of monitoring and patients’ condition in early postoperative period. No deviations requiring modifications in surgical manipulations were found during neuromonitoring. No iatrogenic neurological disorders were registered in postoperative period. Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring is an additional effective method which allows reducing the risk of postoperative complications and indirectly improving the results of surgical manipulations.
