Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring during Microvascular Decompression Surgery for Hemifacial Spasm. [PDF]
J Korean Neurosurg Soc, 2019 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.
