Trigeminal neuralgia associated with osteogenesis imperfecta.

چکیده
A 21 year old man with severe osteogenesis imperfecta developed classic right maxillary trigeminal neuralgia. Brain imaging showed pronounced basilar invagination, which was probably responsible for the pain through distortion of the trigeminal sensory root secondary to displacement of the brainstem. Osteogenesis imperfecta may be added to Paget's disease as a potential cause of symptomatic trigeminal neuralgia in association with deformity of the skull base.
