Ventrolateral medullary compression in hypertensive patients with hemifacial spasm.
Neurology 2005 November 9
In a patient-controlled study, the authors demonstrated a significantly higher prevalence of rostral ventrolateral medulla (VLM) compression in hypertensive patients with hemifacial spasm (HFS) compared with age-, sex-, race-, disease duration-, and disease severity-matched normotensive patients with HFS (p = 0.02). Hypertensive HFS patients were more likely to have a greater severity of neurovascular compression at the VLM compared with normotensive HFS patients (p = 0.008). VLM compression is associated with risk of hypertension in this study population.
