Microvascular Decompression for Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia
Neurosurgery, 1995Glossopharyngeal neuralgia is an uncommon cause of facial pain with a relative frequency of 0.2 to 1.3% when compared with trigeminal neuralgia. It is characterized by intermittent, lancinating pain involving the posterior tongue and pharynx, often with radiation to deep ear structures.

Microvascular decompression for cochlear symptoms
Journal of Neurosurgery, 2000Object. The object of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a new neurovascular decompression technique in relieving symptoms of cochlear nerve dysfunction.Methods. Nineteen patients with slowly progressive hearing loss, low-frequency fluctuating hearing loss, and high-pitched tinnitus due to neurovascular compression (NVC) of the eighth cranial ...

Endoscopic Microvascular Decompression
Microvascular decompression is a widely accepted surgical treatment for compressive cranial nerve pathologies such as trigeminal neuralgia, hemifacial spasm, glossopharyngeal neuralgia, and other craniofacial pain syndromes. Endoscopy has risen as a safe and effective minimally invasive tool to optimize microvascular decompression.Sonia, Ajmera +2 more

Microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia
Acta Neurochirurgica, 1989An analysis of 57 patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN) treated with microvascular decompression (MVD) is presented. Mean follow-up time was 3.1 years. Vascular compression of the trigeminal nerve root was noted in 54 cases. In the remaining 3 patients, adhesions were observed in two, whereas no obvious cause was found in one case. Among the patients

Microvascular decompression of cochleovestibular nerve
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2008The role of microvascular decompression (MVD) in the management of trigeminal neuralgia, hemifacial spasms and glossopharyngeal neuralgia is well-established. However, controversy persisted as to the use of MVD in cochleovestibular neurovascular compression syndrome.

The Multiscope Technique for Microvascular Decompression
World Neurosurgery, 2017Endoscopic surgery has rapidly become widespread in neurosurgery in recent years. Endoscopy can offer close and panoramic surgical views with fine illumination, even in the deep intracranial area. However, it also has the following serious drawback: an intracranial blind area between the field lens of the endoscope and the site of the dural opening ...

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2015
The objectives of this work are to report the outcomes of our finding during microvascular decompression (MVD) for patients with recurrent trigeminal neuralgia (TN) and to introduce the sling retraction technique.The authors performed a retrospective review of redo MVD for consecutive cases with recurrent TN after previous operation.

Microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia
Current Opinion in Neurology, 2012A recent Cochrane systematic review of surgical interventions for trigeminal neuralgia found not a single trial of what is becoming the most popular surgical intervention, namely microvascular decompression (MVD). With an increasing number of anticonvulsant drugs it is likely that patients may not be offered a surgical option for management of their ...

Microvascular Decompression for Trigeminal Neuralgia
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2015The aim of this study is to introduce zone exploration of the trigeminal nerve and decompression techniques for different types of vasculars.The trigeminal nerve was sectioned into 5 zones. Zone 1, 2, 3, 4 was located at the rostral, caudal, ventral, and dorsal part of the nerve root entry zone (REZ) respectively, and zone 5 was located at the distal ...

Results of reoperation for failed microvascular decompression
Acta Neurochirurgica, 1992Among 64 patients with hemifacial spasm (HFS) and 60 with trigeminal neuralgia (TN) treated by microvascular decompression (MVD), repeated MVD performed on 3 cases with HFS resulted in the absence of spasm in all cases. In 7 cases with TN, this technique resulted in complete remission in 2, recurrence in 3, and no pain relief in 2 cases.
