Trigeminal Neuralgia Caused by Persistent Primitive Trigeminal Artery
A 66-year-old man presented with typical trigeminal neuralgia (TN). Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) revealed a primitive trigeminal artery (PTA) that came into contact with the trigeminal nerve. Based on MRA, we performed microvascular decompression (MVD). In the operational field, we confirmed the PTA location and performed MVD successfully. Postoperatively, the patient's pain subsided wi...
متن کاملAn animal model for trigeminal neuralgia by compression of the trigeminal nerve root.
BACKGROUND Microvascular compression of the trigeminal nerve root is a major cause of most trigeminal neuralgia (TN) in patients; however, no reliable animal model to further study the pathogenesis of TN currently exists. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to establish a novel and practical animal model for TN by chronic compression of the trigeminal (CCT) nerve root in rats, which would provide a b...
متن کاملAncient Schwannoma of the Trigeminal Nerve Mimicking High Grade Lesion
Ancient schwannomas rarely found in the central nervous system and ancient change in an intracranial schwannoma (intracranial portion of the trigeminal nerve) is extremely rare. A seventy-year man presented with headache of 3 months duration and one episode of generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Imaging findings were suggestive of left temporal high grade lesion. During surgery there was well...
متن کاملAnatomoclinical features of trigeminal neuralgia caused by vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia
Vertebrobasilardolichoectasia (VBDE) is a rare cause of trigeminal neuralgia (TN). The size and tortuous course of the offending vessel poses a particular challenge when attempting a surgical treatment with microvascular decompression. There are few reports on the radiological and surgical anatomy encountered in this condition. The anatomical and radiological features of a surgical series of 7 ...
متن کاملSpectrum of trigeminal neuralgia.
BACKGROUND Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a very painful condition characterized by paroxysmal shock like pain in the distribution of one or more branches of trigeminal nerve caused by neurovascular conflict at the root entry zone of trigeminal nerve. This study was conducted to analyse the demography and pattern of TN in our setup. METHODS This descriptive study was conducted in the Oral Surge...
