BACKGROUND: After microvascular decompression (MVD) for hemifacial spasm (HFS), a minority of patients realize little to no relief of spasms. In some patients, the absence of relief of spasms results from incomplete or inadequate decompression of ...

Prospective, Multicenter Clinical Study of Microvascular Decompression for Hemifacial Spasm.
Neurosurgery, 2021BACKGROUND Microvascular decompression (MVD) is the most effective procedure for hemifacial spasm (HFS). MVD results from nonspecialized or low-volume institutes are not always reliable.

Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a peripheral movement disorder caused by direct or indirect compression or distortion of the root exit zone of the seventh cranial nerve, which is most commonly compressed by an arterial loop, but also may be compressed by a tumor, cyst, or aneurysm.

BACKGROUND Microvascular decompression (MVD) is the surgical treatment of choice for hemifacial spasm (HFS). During MVD, monitoring of the abnormal lateral spread response (LSR), an evoked response to facial nerve stimulation, has been traditionally used

Background: Hemifacial spasm is an involuntary condition that involves muscles innervated by the ipsilateral facial nerve. There are secondary causes of hemifacial spasm that can produce a typical presentation of symptoms.

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1978
A review of the literature as well as recent surgical observations indicate that hemifacial spasm may be caused by normal or pathological vascular structures that cross-compress the facial nerve. The critical area of compression is invariably found at the brain stem exit zone of the seventh cranial nerve.

Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a peripherally induced movement disorder causing clonic or tonic contractions of the facial muscles. HFS is usually unilateral and sporadic. It may be primary (mainly attributed to vascular compressions of the seventh cranial nerve in the posterior fossa) or secondary to facial nerve or brainstem damage.

Hemifacial spasm (HFS), or facial hemispasm, is a paroxysmal hyperkinetic disorder involving muscles innervated by the facial nerve, mainly on the one hand. The development of HFS is based on neurovascular conflict. However, it is impossible to explain the clinical manifestations of HFS only by nerve compression.
