Efficacy of Biomedical Glue Sling Technique Versus Traditional Technique for Microvascular Decompression for Hemifacial Spasm with Refractory Hypertension

摘要

BACKGROUND: Microvascular decompression (MVD) is useful treatment for hemifacial spasm (HFS) with refractory hypertension (RHTN). The biomedical glue sling technique is a new method for MVD. In this study, we retrospectively compared the outcome of the biomedical glue sling technique with traditional technique in MVD for HFS with RHTN.
