Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital offers dedicated Microvascular Decompression (MVD) supported by experienced neurosurgeons, high-resolution imaging, operating microscopes, and specialized neurovascular facilities. Established in 2012, the JCI accredited hospital is situated in Novena, Singapore and has 313 beds supporting advanced cranial nerve surgery.

Microvascular Decompression (MVD) is designed to relieve symptoms caused by direct contact between a blood vessel and a cranial nerve. The procedure is performed through a small craniotomy, allowing the surgeon to visualize the affected nerve and identify the compressing vessel. The vessel is gently repositioned and separated from the nerve using a small pad or other suitable material. MVD may provide long-term symptom relief in appropriately selected patients with conditions such as trigeminal neuralgia or hemifacial spasm.
