Efficacy of a Quantitative Intra‐Operative Facial Nerve Continuous Monitoring System for Functional Preservation Following Intratemporal Facial Nerve Schwannoma Resection [PDF]
Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 3, June 2026.We investigated the role of a continuous, quantitative intraoperative monitoring system in surgeries for facial nerve schwannomas, a rare tumor associated with a high risk of facial nerve dysfunction. By continuously stimulating the facial nerve and recording electromyographic responses in real time, the system enabled surgeons to detect subtle or ...
