What is the root exit zone according to Microvascular decompression. Can you describe it?
Root exit zone is site at which the facial nerve exited the brainstem as the upper end of the supraolivary fossette.Microvascular decompression is a surgical treatment that relieves the symptoms of nerve compression (pain, muscle twitching) caused by an artery or vein. It offers the longest relief from trigeminal neuralgia pain and the lowest risk of permanent facial numbness following surgery.
