Transposition of the Vertebral Artery With Fibrin Glue Adhesive in Microvascular Decompression: A Case Report

A 70-year-old male had suffered from left trigeminal neuralgia, and magnetic resonance images showed that the left dolichoectatic vertebral artery compressed the trigeminal nerve upward and the left superior cerebellar artery compressed the root entry zone. In microvascular decompression surgery, the dolichoectatic vertebral artery was transposed and fixed to the dura with fibrin glue adhesive, and a wide working space was acquired. Then, the superior cerebellar artery was confirmed to compress the trigeminal nerve root and was transposed from the root entry zone. The patient was relieved of the trigeminal neuralgia after the surgery. Vascular transposition using fibrin glue adhesive is safer and easier than other methods, even for transposition of the vertebral artery. The highest priority should be given to the safety of the method in functional neurosurgical operations.
