Background: Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a socially limiting condition leading to decreased quality of life that can be treated with microvascular decompression (MVD). Endoscopy has been described as an adjunct to traditional microscopy for MVD, although the best visualization technique is debated.
Objective: To review the current literature on use of endoscopy in MVD for HFS and to describe the simultaneous microscopic and endoscopic visualization technique along with a video illustration.

Epidermoid tumors arise from misplaced squamous epithelium and enlarge through the accumulation of desquamated cell debris.1 Notwithstanding the prevailing conservative attitudes to minimize morbidity, optimal treatment consists of total removal of the capsule2,3; therefore, giant and multicompartmental tumors are particularly challenging. The utilization of simultaneous endoscopic microscopic techniques by tandem endoscopic and microscopic dissection to overcome the shortcomings of both modalities, markedly enhances the ability of radical removal,4 thus eliminating or at least long-delaying inevitable recurrences with subsequent accumulated morbidity.

The current therapy concepts in transoral endoscopic laryngeal surgery are presented in combination with the various possibilities of reconstruction. The adequate oncological treatment under functional aspects described plays the decisive role here: treatment goals beyond the cure of the tumor disease are the functional maintenance of the larynx with simultaneous preservation of the voice.
