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

open access: yesInterdisciplinary 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

open access: yesBrain 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

Spontaneous Iliopsoas Hematoma following Microvascular Free Tissue Transfer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Spontaneous hematoma within the iliopsoas muscle (SIH) is a rare complication most commonly seen in coagulopathic patients. Often, patients undergoing microvascular free tissue transfer are anticoagulated for anastomotic patency.

Endoscopic Microvascular Decompression for Trigeminal Neuralgia [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Arts, 2022
Background: A severe, intermittent pain in the trigeminal nerve distribution area on one side of the face is known as trigeminal neuralgia. The primary pathophysiological cause of trigeminal neuralgia is neurovascular compression, which results in ...
