An objective tool to measure the effect of botulinum toxin in blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm
European Journal of Neurology, 2020It is challenging to assess patients with blepharospasm (BSP) and hemifacial spasm (HFS) as these patients exhibit a wide range of amplitudes of eyelid movements. In order to quantify these movements, a mathematical algorithm, i.e. Fast Fourier Transform,

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.

AbstractWe present a family in which hemifacial spasm involving in all cases the left side of the face occurred in five persons in three generations. Blink reflexes recorded in two cases demonstrated an unexpected R1 component on the affected side during stimulation of the contralateral side.

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.

Neurology, 1986
We conducted polygraphic studies during wakefulness and all-night sleep in 13 patients with cryptogenic and 3 with postparalytic hemifacial spasm. The movements decreased progressively with deepening sleep stages, reaching lowest values in REM sleep. The reduction was inversely related to the severity of movements during wakefulness.

Hemifacial spasm in a 10-year-old child is herein reported. Computed tomography and angiography were normal. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an anomalous vascular structure, probably a redundant loop arising from AICA or PICA, which was identified at surgery. The spasm, presumably due to vascular compression at the root entry zone of the right facial

Three male patients in successive generations of the same family developed acquired left-sided hemifacial spasm. Magnetic resonance imaging of the proband demonstrated a pontine vertebral artery anomaly near the root of the affected facial nerve. This family and a similar family that was recently presented illustrate several interesting features: (1 ...
