Takuro Inoue et al.

Summary: This study retrospectively reviewed 34 cases of PV-NVC patients who underwent MVD, and found that separating the PV from the nerve root can provide pain relief for the majority of patients, but postoperative complications such as facial numbness and venous infarctions may occur.
