Vaskuläre Erkrankungen des Kleinhirnbrückenwinkels

Abstract: Vascular anomalies of the cerebellopontine angle are rare compared to tumors in this area. Irritation of the trigeminal, facial, or vestibulocochlear nerve may cause trigeminal neuralgia, hemifacial spasm and vertigo, or tinnitus accordingly. Vessel loops in the cerebellopontine cisterns may cause compression at the root entry or exit zone of the cranial nerves V, VII, and VIII, a phenomenon which is called "vascular loop syndrome." Megadolichobasilar artery and aneurysms of the vertebrobasilar system can also… Show more

“…The incidence of identification of a neurovascular conflict during MVD using the microscope oscillates between 25% and 98% in large series [35][36][37]. The reason of the inability to recognize a neurovascular conflict could be a negative exploration, as the probability to find the site of nerve compression increases with the surgeon's experience [35,36].…”

“…Additionally, Esfahani et al studied the efficiency of CT-cisternography in the analyses of patients with recurrent vertigo episodes in the late 1980s 4 . With the development of MRI techniques, the focus on vessel loops, neurovascular compression and neurovascular conflicts has intensified 5 - 7 . After having been described over 30 years ago, vestibular paroxysmia has subsequently become a well-known differential diagnosis in patients with recurrent paroxysmal vertigo, characterised by short intense recurrent vertigo attacks 8 .…”
