We used neurointerventional techniques to conduct a functional investigation of the artery responsible for hemifacial spasm in a 48-year-old woman. Insertion of a microcatheter into the posterior inferior cerebellar artery stopped the hemifacial spasm immediately and completely. The artery was verified intraoperatively as the vessel compressing the root exit zone of the facial nerve.
我们采用神经介入技术，对一名48岁女性中导致面肌痉挛的动脉进行了功能研究。将微导管插入小脑后下动脉后，面肌痉挛立即完全停止。术中证实该动脉即为压迫面神经根部出口区的血管。
