ABSTRACT
Microvascular decompression surgery is the first line surgical treatment for hyperactive dysfunction syndrome of the cranial nerves, whenever drugs fail due to insufficient or undesirable effects. The surgical technique involves separating the vascular loop compressing the nerve root and despite being minimally invasive surgery relatively short, the neuroanesthesiologist should note that this is within the posterior fossa and thereby prevent complications and have anesthetic considerations. The highlights is the anesthetic assessment to evaluate comorbidities and drug interaction; the choice of anesthetic technique and monitoring to consider; surgical position with their respective complication risks, hemodynamic and ventilatory changes; the critical moments of the surgery in which neuroanesthesiologist participation is essential and aspects of postanesthetic period we must observe to ensure proper patient outcomes.
