Case report: Fully endoscopic microvascular decompression for glossopharyngeal neuralgia [PDF]
With the advances in endoscopic technology, endoscopy is widely used in many neurosurgical procedures, such as microvascular decompression, which is an effective method to treat glossopharyngeal neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia, and facial spasm.

Advances in microvascular decompression for hemifacial spasm
Primary hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a disorder that causes frequent involuntary contractions in the muscles on one side of the face, due to a blood vessel compressing the nerve at its root exit zone (REZ) from the brainstem. Numerous prospective and retrospective case series have confirmed the efficacy of microvascular decompression (MVD) of the facial ...

Fully Endoscopic Microvascular Decompression for Trigeminal Neuralgia [PDF]
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a chronic, progressive facial pain disorder characterized by severe paroxysmal episodes in the distribution of the trigeminal nerve. The most common cause of (TN) is compression of the trigeminal nerve by a vascular structure
