Fully endoscopic microvascular decompression for the treatment of hemifacial spasm, trigeminal neuralgia, and glossopharyngeal neuralgia: a retrospective study

In this retrospective study, our results suggest that the fully E-MVD for the treatment of NVC such as HFS, TN, and GPN, is a safe and effective surgical method. Fully E-MVD for the treatment of NVC has advantages and techniques not available with microscopic MVD, which may reduce the incidence of surgical complications while improving the curative effect and reducing the recurrence rate.
