Trigeminal neuralgia andglossopharyngeal neuralgia

Neurologic Clinics, 2004
Trigeminal neuralgia and glossopharyngeal neuralgia are extremely painful conditions that typically afflict an older population. Distinct clinical characteristics guide the diagnosis of these unique syndromes. Treatment involves medication first and then surgical procedures if a patient is refractory to medicinal therapy.

Craniofacial neuralgias [PDF]

open access: possibleNeuroRehabilitation, 2020
While non-headache, non-oral craniofacial neuralgia is relatively rare in incidence and prevalence, it can result in debilitating pain. Understanding the relevant anatomy of peripheral branches of nerves, natural history, clinical presentation, and management strategies will help the clinician better diagnose and treat craniofacial neuralgias.

Neuralgias

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1989
Cranial neuralgias are relatively uncommon but the excruciating nature of the pain they cause make them the focus of much clinical and research interest. The underlying mechanism of the disease remains to be uncovered. The complexities of the trigeminal system make the quest for comprehensive understanding a difficult one.

The Neuralgias

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2018
Neuralgias are characterized by pain in the distribution of a cranial or cervical nerve. Typically, they are brief, paroxysmal, painful attacks, although continuous neuropathic pain may occur. The most commonly encountered conditions are trigeminal, postherpetic, and occipital neuralgia.

Trigeminal Neuralgia

New England Journal of Medicine, 2020
Trigeminal neuralgia, traditionally called tic douloureux, is a chronic neuropathic pain disorder characterized by spontaneous and elicited paroxysms of electric shock–like or stabbing pain in a region of the face. A poor quality of life and suicide in severe cases have been attributed to the disorder.
