Video: Arachnoid to Transpose SCA in MVD Video 3

This video shows how after the transposition of the vessel with the arachnoidal membrane a small piece of muscle or Teflon may be positioned to firmly retain the vessel in the arachnoidal hole.

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.
