Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring during Microvascular Decompression Surgery for Hemifacial Spasm. [PDF]
Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is due to the vascular compression of the facial nerve at its root exit zone (REZ). Microvascular decompression (MVD) of the facial nerve near the REZ is an effective treatment for HFS. In MVD for HFS, intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (INM) has two purposes.

5-Hydroxytryptamine and postoperative nausea and vomiting after microvascular decompression surgery
The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery is high; however, its underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Serum 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) levels are elevated in patients with PONV. However, the relationship between 5-HT and patients experiencing PONV after MVD surgery is still unknown ...

Case report: Fully endoscopic microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia
Microvascular decompression is safe, effective, and micro-invasive. Due to these advantages, it has become the mainstream treatment for trigeminal neuralgia, glossopharyngeal neuralgia, and hemifacial spasm.

Long-term results of microvascular decompression with video endoscopy in the treatment of patients with atypical trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]
Background: The incidence of atypical trigeminal neuralgia (aNTN) varies from 1 to 7 per 100,000 population per year. The main cause of its development is compression of the trigeminal nerve (TN) root by a vein and/or artery in the cerebellar cistern. To

Microvascular Decompression using Muscle Graft for Vertebral Artery Medullary Compression Syndrome
It is well known that brainstem dysfunction may be caused by vascular compression of the medulla oblongata. However, only a limited number of reports have found microvascular decompression surgery to be an effective treatment for symptomatic patients ...
