Objective: The aims of this study were to investigate disposal of adhesions and transposition of the trigeminal nerve during microvascular decompression and evaluate its surgical effect.
Methods: By collecting the clinical data of typical trigeminal neuralgia patients we treated from January 2013 to May 2013, we chose 120 patients with adhesions and transposition of trigeminal nerve, analyzed their preoperative imaging features and surgical procedures, and evaluated postoperative effect after 3-month follow-up.
Results: Among these 120 patients, 113 cases showed positive effect in magnetic resonance imaging (three-dimensional time-of-flight); the positive rate was 94.
Objective: The objective of this study was to introduce the operation essentials for treatment of patients with vein compression so as to obtain a satisfactory decompression without sacrificing veins.
Methods: We chose 15 patients with trigeminal neuralgia caused by venous from June 15, 2010, through June 15, 2011, and performed microvascular decompression for each patient. By collecting clinical data, such as preoperative magnetic resonance imaging scans, key operative procedures, surgical outcomes, and complications, we explored the operation techniques for these patients and finally summarized our experiences and ideas.
