The authors evaluated the use of fenestrated aneurysm clips to maintain transposition of culprit vessels in patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN) and hemifacial spasm (HFS).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>The authors conducted a retrospective review of MVD operations in which the culprit vessel was transposed and then maintained in position with a fenestrated aneurysm clip secured in position by suturing it to the dura mater.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Among a consecutive series of more than 450 MVD surgeries, the fenestrated aneurysm clip sling was used in eight of the last 100 cases: six for HFS and two for TN. The follow-up period ranged from 1 to 13 months, and complete symptom resolution was noted in seven of the eight patients. No patient exhibited evidence of any surgical complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>This approach can be safely performed in complicated MVD cases such as reoperations and transpositions of long ectatic arteries.
