Acute surgery of cerebral aneurysms and prevention of symptomatic vasospasm.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Microvascular decompression (MVD) for hemifacial spasm (HFS) provides a long-term cure rate. Delayed facial palsy (DFP) is not an unusual complication, but it has only been sporadically described in the literature. The purpose of this report is to evaluate the incidence of delayed facial palsy after MVD and ...
