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.

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
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 ...

Surgicel for microvascular decompression of the trigeminal nerve
Acta Neurologica Belgica, 2015We read with great interest the paper by Davide Boeris et al. [2] titled ‘‘Pontine compression caused by ‘‘surgiceloma’’ after trigeminal decompression: case report and literature review’’. The authors describe a rare complication after microvascular decompression (MVD) of the trigeminal nerve using Surgicel and fibrin glue.

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.

Treatment of Hemimasticatory Spasm With Microvascular Decompression
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2013Hemimasticatory spasm is a rare disorder characterized by paroxysmal involuntary contraction of the jaw-closing muscles. As the ideology and pathogenesis of the disease are still unclear, there has been no treatment that could give rise to a good outcome so far. Herein, we tried to use surgical management to cure the disease.

Microvascular decompression of the facial nerve
Operative Techniques in Neurosurgery, 2001Hemifacial spasm is a rare, benign condition that first was described more than a century ago. Symptoms are synkinesis and spasms, for which different hypotheses have been put forward that are detailed in this article. The surgical anatomy of the cerebellopontine angle and of the different offending vessels is reviewed, followed by a histologic ...

Surgical technique for trigeminal microvascular decompression
Acta Neurochirurgica, 2012Microvascular decompression (MVD) is a non-ablative technique designed to resolve the neurovascular conflict responsible for typical idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia (TN).With the patient in a supine position, a small elliptical retrosigmoid craniectomy is used to approach the cerebellopontine angle and the trigeminal nerve. After careful exploration of

Compression of the trigeminal root entry zone by a blood vessel can cause trigeminal neuralgia (TN). However, a neurovascular conflict does not explain all cases of TN and TN can exist without a neurovascular contact.
