Varied Somatosensory Abnormalities Found With Trigeminal Nerve Damage
Researchers to explore the somatosensory changes related to trigeminal nerve damage using psychophysical and electrophysiological tools.
Trigeminal Neuralgia
Pulsed Radiofrequency May Relieve Trigeminal Postherpetic Neuralgia Pain
Computed tomography-guided pulsed radiofrequency therapy may offer pain relief, improve quality of life, and reduce medication use in patients with trigeminal postherpetic neuralgia.
OnabotulinumtoxinA Injection of Sphenopalatine Ganglion May Not Improve Trigeminal Neuralgia
The injection of onabotulinumtoxinA toward the sphenopalatine ganglion in patients with trigeminal neuralgia may not reduce the number of attacks.
Bipolar Radiofrequency Thermocoagulation for Trigeminal Neuralgia
Patients with V3 trigeminal neuralgia may get greater benefit from bipolar vs unipolar radiofrequency thermocoagulation.
Burden Associated With Pharmacotherapy Switching in Trigeminal Neuralgia
An examination of treatment patterns among patients with trigeminal neuralgia suggests that this orofacial disorder appears to be significantly burdensome.
Higher Reoperation Rates After Microvascular Decompression in Patients With Diabetes, Obesity
Microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia, hemifacial spasm, and glossopharyngeal neuralgia was found to be a largely safe procedure.
Neuromodulation for Refractory Trigeminal Neuralgia: Expert Feedback
Neuromodulation techniques have been explored as alternative treatment options in patients with trigeminal neuralgia who do not achieve adequate pain relief with pharmacologic therapies and surgical interventions.
Acupuncture May Alleviate Pain in Idiopathic Trigeminal Neuralgia
Acupuncture may reduce pain intensity and mechanical thresholds in patients with idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia.
Trigeminal Neuralgia Linked to Multiple Sclerosis: Comparing Surgical Interventions
Radiofrequency rhizotomy and the more expensive stereotactic radio surgery provide immediate pain relief from trigeminal neuralgia associated with multiple sclerosis.
Trigeminal Neuralgia: Assessing Treatment Patterns to Improve Outcomes
In a 3-year period, 45% of patients with trigeminal neuralgia received at least 3 unique treatments.
