She failed appropriate medical treatment. Her magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed an ectatic vertebrobasilar system as well as an anterior inferior cerebellar artery (AICA) loop causing compression of the VII\/VIII nerve complex in the cerebellopontine angle.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Main Outcome Measures\u2003Resolution of right-sided otalgia.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Results\u2003The patient underwent retrosigmoid craniotomy with microvascular decompression of the VII\/VIII nerve complex and nervus intermedius sectioning. Intraoperatively, the patient was noted to have an ectatic vertebral artery and AICA that were compressing the root entry zone of the VII\/VIII nerve complex. Microvascular decompression was performed of both the vertebral artery and AICA with Teflon. The nervus intermedius was sharply sectioned. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful with no complications. She continues to have resolution of her right sided otalgia at 6 months postoperatively.<\/jats:p><jats:p>The link to the video can be found at: https:\/\/youtu.be\/uRb_QfrINSk.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0038-1675151","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,30]],"date-time":"2018-11-30T18:48:07Z","timestamp":1543603687000},"page":"S316-S317","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"special_numbering":"S","title":["Microvascular Decompression and Nervus Intermedius Sectioning for the Treatment of Geniculate Neuralgia"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"80","author":[{"given":"Tyler J.","family":"Kenning","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Albany Medical Center, Albany, New York, United States"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christine S.","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Otolaryngology, Albany Medical Center, Albany, New York, United States"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexander G.","family":"Bien","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Otolaryngology, Albany Medical Center, Albany, New York, United States"},{"name":"Albany Ear, Nose, and Throat Services, Albany, New York, United States"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,30]]},"container-title":["Journal of Neurological Surgery Part B: Skull Base"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0038-1675151.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,24]],"date-time":"2019-05-24T18:44:37Z","timestamp":1558723477000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0038-1675151"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,30]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"S 03","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,24]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,6]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0038-1675151","relation":{},"ISSN":["2193-6331","2193-634X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2193-6331","type":"print"},{"value":"2193-634X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,30]]}}}
