Transposition of posterior inferior cerebellar artery could have caused ischemic complication in microvascular decompression for hemifacial spasm

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2019
Ischemic complications are generally rare complications in microvascular decompression surgery for hemifacial spasm. We report a case of posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) infarction post-microvascular decompression. A 68-year old woman with a 2-

Surgical and Clinical Outcomes of Microvascular Decompression: A Comparative Study between Young and Elderly Patients

Brain Sciences, 2022
Microvascular decompression (MVD) is the only etiological technique for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia (TN). Whilst there is a consensus MVD is likely effective regardless of age, the elderly population is thought to be more prone to have a higher
