Preliminary Report of Fully Endoscopic Microvascular Decompression

CONCLUSION: Fully E-MVD demonstrated similar clinical outcomes to microscopic MVD. It offered a similar complication rate, shorter operation time, and a panoramic view with a smaller craniectomy size. Although there is a learning curve associated with fully E-MVD, it presents a viable alternative in the endoscopic era.PMID:38583999 | DOI:10.3340/jkns.2024.0003
