Endoscopic endonasal intracanalicular optic nerve decompression: how I do it.

abstract：:Microvascular decompression (MVD) has come to stay as an effective way of treating hemifacial spasm. But it remains to be seen how much each of the electrophysiological monitoring techniques (intra-operative) are contributing to its increased efficacy. Their role as indicators for re-exploration or recurrence is to be...

We hypothesize that NMC-associated DTF occurs in soft tissues innervated by the NMC-affected nerve, and arises from CTNNB1-mutated (myo) fibroblasts within or directly adjacent to the NMC.
