Microvascular Decompression for Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia

open access: hybridNeurosurgery, 1995
Glossopharyngeal neuralgia is an uncommon cause of facial pain with a relative frequency of 0.2 to 1.3% when compared with trigeminal neuralgia. It is characterized by intermittent, lancinating pain involving the posterior tongue and pharynx, often with radiation to deep ear structures.

Efficacy of primary microvascular decompression versus subsequent microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Neurosurgery, 2017
OBJECTIVETrigeminal neuralgia (TN) is characterized by intermittent, paroxysmal, and lancinating pain along the distribution of the trigeminal nerve. Microvascular decompression (MVD) directly addresses compression of the trigeminal nerve. The purpose of this study was to determine whether patients undergoing MVD as their first surgical intervention ...
