An analysis of failed microvascular decompression in patients with hemifacial spasm: focused on the early reoperative findings
Although the microvascular decompression (MVD) has become a definitive treatment for the primary hemifacial spasm (HFS), there still are some failed cases. To obtain a satisfactory postoperative outcome, those...

Article
Re-operation for persistent hemifacial spasm after microvascular decompression with the aid of intraoperative monitoring of abnormal muscle response
Microvascular decompression (MVD) is the only solution that can effectively control hemifacial spasm (HFS). Regarding treatment of the patients who failed the first operation, it is still controversial. We tri...

Identification of cranial nerves near large vestibular schwannomas using superselective diffusion tensor tractography: experience with 23 cases
The preservation of the facial nerve (FN) and acoustic function in large vestibular schwannoma (VS) surgery is challenging because of nerve course uncertainties and morphological deviations. Preoperative diffu...

Identification of cranial nerves around trigeminal schwannomas using diffusion tensor tractography: a technical note and report of 3 cases
There are no large series studies identifying the locations of cranial nerves (CNs) around trigeminal schwannomas (TSs); however, surgically induced cranial neuropathies are commonly observed after surgeries t...

Trigeminal neuralgia caused by a dilated superior cerebellar artery and a draining vein of cerebellar arteriovenous malformations: a case report and review of the literature
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) secondary to arterivenous malformations (AVMs) is relatively rare. We here report on a case of TN caused by cerebellar AVMs that was successfully treated by total AVMs resection in co...

Article
Usefulness of intraoperative electromyographic monitoring of oculomotor and abducens nerves during skull base surgery
Intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring of the extraocular cranial nerve (EOCN) is not commonly performed because of technical difficulty and risk, reliability of the result and predictability of the postop...

A nomogram to predict survival of patients with intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma after transarterial chemoembolization combined with microwave ablation
To develop a prognostic nomogram based on the albumin–bilirubin (ALBI) grade for prediction of the long-term survival of patients with intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after transarterial chem...

Article
Radiofrequency ablation versus repeat resection for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (≤ 5 cm) after initial curative resection
Recurrence rate is up to 70% at 5 years for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after initial resection, but the management of recurrent HCC remains unclear. To compare the efficacy and safety of radiofrequency abl...
