Short-term versus long-term outcomes of microvascular decompression for hemifacial spasm.
Jeong-A LeeKwan ParkPublished in: Acta neurochirurgica (2019)
Short- and long-term outcomes of MVD in patients with HFS manifested differently, but the outcomes at 6 and 9 months showed similarities with those at > 12 months. In patients in whom the intraoperatively detected offending vessel was not a vein, and in patients with intraoperative indentation on the facial nerve and postoperative delayed facial palsy, good outcomes could be predicted after 6 months of surgery.
