Microvascular Decompression for Refractory Trigeminal Neuralgia
Background Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a common microvascular compression syndrome of cranial nerves. Medical treatment is regarded as the first line treatment; however, a group of patients do not respond to medical treatment satisfactorily and develop persistent and refractory symptom(s). Surgical microvascular decompression (MVD) is usually then advised. We reviewed the surgical MVD outcome ...
متن کاملRefractory trigeminal neuralgia. Non-surgical treatment options.

However, because some patients may not be willing to resort to surgery, we searched the literature for treatment in refractory t...
متن کاملPeripheral neuromodulation for the treatment of refractory trigeminal neuralgia
Trigeminal neuralgia is a type of orofacial pain that is diagnosed in 150,000 individuals each year, with an incidence of 12.6 per 100,000 person-years and a prevalence of 155 cases per 1,000,000 in the United States.

متن کاملRadiosurgery for Trigeminal Neuralgia
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN), also known as tic douloureux, is a pain syndrome recognizable by patient history alone. The condition is characterized by intermittent unilateral facial pain. The pain follows the unilateral (>95%) sensory distribution of trigeminal nerve (V), typically radiating to the maxillary (V2) or mandibular (V3) area. Ophthalmic division (V1) pain alone occurs in <5% patients....
متن کاملRefractory trigeminal neuralgia treatment outcomes following CyberKnife radiosurgery
INTRODUCTION A handful of studies have reported outcomes with CyberKnife radiosurgery (CKRS) for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. However, the follow-up has been short with no minimum follow-up required and have included patients with short duration of symptoms. Here we report our institutional experience on patients with a minimum follow-up of 1 year and a median follow-up of 28 months (...
