Microvascular decompression and aneurysm clipping for a patient with hemifacial spasm and ipsilateral labyrinthine artery aneurysm: A rare case report and literature review.

Preoperative MRI results showed a vascular anomaly at the REZ of the left facial nerve (Figure A) and an anomaly at the internal auditory canal (Figure B). The left AICA was identified as the offending vessel compressing the left facial nerve at the REZ (Figure C). After the artery was dissociated and Teflon felt was placed between the involved vessel and the facial nerve (Figure D), electrophysiological monitoring indicated that the AMR had disappeared (Figure E).
