Hydrocephalus: an underrated long-term complication of microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia. A single institute experience

摘要

Hydrocephalus is a common complication of posterior fossa surgery, but its real incidence after microvascular decompression (MVD) for idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia (TN) still remains unclear. The aim of this study was to focus on the potential association between MVD and hydrocephalus as a surgery-related complication.
