Glossopharyngeal neuralgia.
CASE This 60-year-old woman presented with an 11-year history of severe throat pain recurring approximately every couple of years lasting for about 3 months. The current episode had been present for 5 weeks, the prior episode occurred over 1 year previously. She described an electrical pain with an intensity of 10 of 10 felt in the left throat around the tonsillar area sometimes shooting to the...
متن کاملGlossopharyngeal neuralgia secondary to vascular compression in a patient with multiple sclerosis: a case report
INTRODUCTION Glossopharyngeal neuralgia is an uncommon, painful syndrome, characterized by paroxysms of pain in the sensory distribution of the 9th cranial nerve. Idiopathic glossopharyngeal neuralgia may be due to compression of the glossopharyngeal nerve by adjacent vessels, while secondary glossopharyngeal neuralgia is associated with identifiable lesions affecting the glossopharyngeal nerve...
متن کاملGlossopharyngeal neuralgia.
Glossopharyngeal neuralgia is a distinctive syndrome, named by Wilfred Harris. Investigation must exclude multiple sclerosis, and local compression, especially by tumours which require treatment. Dandy deserves credit for first indicating vascular compression of cranial nerve roots as a cause of cranial neuralgias, and Jannetta for establishing neurovascular decompression. Vascular compression ...
متن کاملGlossopharyngeal neuralgia.
Nine cases of glossopharyngeal neuralgia have been seen in the last 5 years and are reported. They fall into 2 groups, namely otitic and oropharyngeal, according to the initial location of pain. The condition is probably more common than is recognised, largely because there are diagnostic difficulties with the otitic form where the pain radiates widely into the distribution of the trigeminal ne...
متن کاملClassification of neurovascular compression in glossopharyngeal neuralgia: Three-dimensional visualization of the glossopharyngeal nerve
BACKGROUND We introduce a method of noninvasive topographical analysis of the neurovascular relationships of the glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) by three-dimensional (3D) visualization. Patients with glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GN) resulting from neurovascular compression (NVC) were studied. METHODS 15 patients with GN were prospectively examined with 3D visualization using high-resolution mag...
