BACKGROUND Decompression of the culprit artery causing hemifacial spasm (HFS), which passes between the facial nerve (cranial nerve [CN] VII) and the auditory nerve (CN VIII), can be difficult, especially if the artery compresses CN VII right after ...

The History of Microvascular Decompression Surgery
2015Neurosurgery 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
2020Hemifacial 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 ...

BACKGROUND Microvascular decompression for hemifacial spasm is performed at the root exit zone. More proximal segments of the facial nerve, defined as the root emerging zone (REmZ), may also be susceptible to neurovascular compression.

Analysis of Therapeutic Effect of Microvascular Decompression Surgery on Idiopathic Hemifacial Spasm
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2014The 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 ...
