OBJECTIVE: The infrafloccular approach in microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery for hemifacial spasm (HFS) was investigated for the prevention of hearing complications.
METHODS: Retrospective analysis of 136 patients who underwent MVD for HFS in 2019. The infrafloccular approach for MVD was adopted to resolve the symptom and protect hearing function. Postoperative hearing function was evaluated subjectively and objectively within 30 postoperative days, and later mainly subjectively. Postoperative condition of mastoid air cells based on the CT scan of the following day was also recorded.
RESULTS: No final postoperative subjective hearing impairment was found in all patients. Mastoid air cells were opened in 105 patients, and subjective hearing impairment was recorded in 57 patients within 30 postoperative days, but all improved later. Increases in thresholds of greater than 10 dB in air conduction were observed in 28 patients, including 26 of transient conductive hearing loss (increases in the threshold of less than or equal to 10 dB). The other 2 patients with increases in the threshold of greater than 10 dB in both air and bone conduction had improvement confirmed by later audiometry.
CONCLUSIONS: Infrafloccular approach in MVD for HFS provides a good hearing outcome. Inclusion of postoperative hearing conditions in the later period is ideal for a precise hearing evaluation.
