Abstract:
Essential hypertension, which is common in population, has an unclear etioligy and the medical therapy is predominantly used. In the last few years, some studies found that the blood pressure could be elevated with the pulsatile compression at the root entry zone（REZ） of the Ⅸ、Ⅹcranial nerve, which may considered to be one of the causes of essential hypertension. Neurovascular decompression moderates the pulsatile compression, and is to be a new method for the treatment of essential hypertension, especially for refractory hypertension. This article summarized the mechanism of neurovascular decompression for essential hypertension and the operative courses.
