Optimal method for reliable lateral spread response monitoring during microvascular decompression surgery for hemifacial spasm. [PDF]
In this study, we propose an optimal method for monitoring the key electrophysiological sign, the Lateral Spread Response (LSR), during microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery for hemifacial spasm (HFS).

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
