Bilateral Low-Frequency Hearing Impairment After Microvascular Decompression Surgery

Neurosurgery, 2023
BACKGROUND: Hearing impairment is an important complication of microvascular decompression (MVD). In patients after MVD, we have occasionally noted slight to moderate hearing deterioration at low frequencies that is difficult to detect using pure tone average.

Microsurgical Anatomy for Microvascular Decompression Surgery

2015
Microvascular decompression surgery is an operation in which knowledge of normal anatomy is especially important because there are often no mass lesions in the cerebellopontine angle (CPA). There are three neurovascular complexes in the CPA, as described in the “rule of 3” (Hitotsumatsu et al. Neurosurgery 53:1436–1441, 2003).

Value-based neurosurgery: the example of microvascular decompression surgery.

Journal of neurosurgery, 2014
Value of care is emerging as a promising framework to restructure health care, emphasizing the importance of reporting multiple outcomes that encompass the entire care episode instead of isolated outcomes specific to care points during a patient's care.

Origins of trigeminal neuralgia surgery (era of microvascular decompression)

Burdenko's Journal of Neurosurgery
Throughout history, physicians have attempted to alleviate suffering of patients with trigeminal neuralgia. However, treatment was ineffective because pathogenesis of disease was unclear. Nevertheless, history of neuralgia shows that pioneering observations made by experienced clinicians led to development of methods that at least partially alleviated ...

The History of Microvascular Decompression Surgery

2015
Neurosurgery is a very different surgical specialty from the days when this investigator was a research fellow and resident in the years 1957 through 1967. Technological advances have enabled most of these changes from an almost brutal surgical specialty with many poor results to a field wherein a normally sensitive human being can work happily and ...

Technical Difficulties of Microvascular Decompression Surgery for Hemifacial Spasm

2020
Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is referred as a truly surgical disorder that microvascular decompression (MVD) plays a major role in treatment. Medication and botulinum toxin are frequently used in outpatient clinics without long-lasting efficacy. Although we do not fully understand the pathophysiology of HFS, there may be unrevealed explanations for the ...

Analysis of Therapeutic Effect of Microvascular Decompression Surgery on Idiopathic Hemifacial Spasm

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2014
The objective of this paper is to study the therapeutic effect of microvascular decompression surgery on idiopathic hemifacial spasm with compression on different zones of facial nerve.The clinical data of 348 patients with idiopathic hemifacial spasm treated by microvascular decompression surgery were retrospectively analyzed.

Use of fenestrated aneurysm clips in microvascular decompression surgery

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2007
✓The standard techniques of microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery in which implant materials such as shredded Teflon felt are used may be inadequate in some complex cases. The authors evaluated the use of fenestrated aneurysm clips to maintain transposition of culprit vessels in patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN) and hemifacial spasm (HFS ...

Redo Surgery for Failed Microvascular Decompression for Hemifacial Spasm

2020
Microvascular decompression (MVD) is an effective treatment option that offers an approximate 90% chance of long-term spasm relief in hemifacial spasm patient. However, we still do not understand the remaining 10% of the patients who could not have the benefit of MVD surgery.
