Hemifacial spasm and neurovascular compression syndrome.
patient was resting, causing contraction of all the muscles innervated by the left seventh cranial nerve. MR angiography revealed a neurovascular compression of the left facial nerve by the anterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA) (figures 1 and 2). The patient was taken to surgery and a microvascular decompression through a retrosigmoid approach was performed. Facial nerve function monitorin...
متن کاملCT and hemifacial spasm.
Forty-six patients with typical hemifacial spasm had CT. Thirty-eight (83%) were abnormal, including two with surgically documented tumors. Thirty-six had a characteristic dolichoectatic vertebrobasilar artery, with the convexity pointing to the side of the spasm in 92% of the scans. This study suggests that CT is worthwhile procedure in the evaluation of hemifacial spasm and that dolichoectati...
متن کاملHemifacial spasm in tuberculous meningitis.
Hemifacial spasm developed in a 47-year-old man with tuberculous meningitis. The spasms ceased completely following vigorous antituberculous treatment. A selective compression of the facial nerve root along its exit at the brainstem by a localised inflammatory process is the most tenable explanation for the development of the hemifacial spasm.
متن کاملBotulinum toxin type B in blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm.
Botulinum neurotoxins (BTXs) inhibit the presynaptic release of acetylcoline causing a chemical denervation that results in sustained muscle weakness and have been used in the past 20 years to induce selective blocking of hyperactive striatal (and smooth) muscles. All the different seven serotypes of BTXs have in common the mechanism of action (block of the neuroexocytosis machinery inside the ...
