Advances in microvascular decompression for hemifacial spasm

Journal of Otology, 2015
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 ...

Evidence of descending inhibition deficits in atypical but not classical trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]

, 2009
: Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a rare neuropathic facial pain disorder. Two forms of TN, classical TN (CTN) and atypical TN (ATN), are reported and probably have different aetiologies. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the functional integrity

AGAPIR: A Novel PIWI‐Interacting RNA Enhancing Post‐Decompression Angiogenesis in Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The restoration of blood flow following surgical decompression for degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) significantly contributes to the amelioration of neurological deficits. This study identifies AGAPIR, an angiogenesis‐associated PIWI‐interacting RNA, enhances angiogenesis and motor function recovery post‐spinal cord decompression in a mouse model
