Management of Cerebrospinal Fluid Leakage after Microvascular Decompression Surgery: Clinical Strategy [PDF]
(1) Background: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is one of the most common complications of microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery. Before fatal complications, such as intracranial infection, occur, early recognition and prompt treatment are ...

Dura Closure Tactics to Prevent CSF Leakage in Microvascular Decompression Surgery [PDF]
(1) Background: Achieving a complete and secure dural closure to prevent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is a critical concern in microvascular decompression (MVD). Proper dural closure minimizes complications, such as infections caused by CSF leakage.

Advances in Intraoperative Neurophysiology During Microvascular Decompression Surgery for Hemifacial Spasm. [PDF]
Microvascular decompression (MVD) is a widely used surgical intervention to relieve the abnormal compression of a facial nerve caused by an artery or vein that results in hemifacial spasm (HFS). Various intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring (ION) and mapping methodologies have been used since the 1980s, including brainstem auditory evoked ...

Acute Glaucoma Attack Following Microvascular Decompression Surgery for Trigeminal Neuralgia. [PDF]
Microvascular decompression (MVD) is widely accepted as an effective surgical method to treat trigeminal neuralgia (TN), but the risks of morbidity and mortality must be considered. We experienced a case of acute angle-closure glaucoma attack following MVD for TN in an elderly patient, considered to be caused by lateral positioning during and after the

Trigeminal neuralgia management after microvascular decompression surgery: two case reports. [PDF]
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) involves chronic neuropathic pain, characterized by attacks of repeating short episodes of unilateral shock-like pain, which are abrupt in onset and termination. Anticonvulsants, such as carbamazepine, are the gold standard first-line drugs for pharmacological treatment.
