Video: Arachnoid to Transpose SCA in MVD Video 1

This video demonstrates how the lateral pontomesenchepalic membrane can be opened “buttonhole” like and the vessels passed through the hole to transpose them from the trigeminal nerve.


This information has been taken from Use of the Arachnoid Membrane of the Cerebellopontine Angle to Transpose the Superior Cerebellar Artery in Microvascular Decompression for Trigeminal Neuralgia: Technical Note. It was submitted by corresponding author Francesco Tuniz, MD, from the Department of Neurosurgery at Azienda Ospedaliero Universitaria di Udine in Udine, Italy.
