To be or not to be a neurovascular conflict: importance of the preoperative identification of the neurovascular conflict in the trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]
Abstract The trigeminal neuralgia caused by neurovascular compression is a neurosurgical pathology requiring the preoperative identification as exact as possible of the neurovascular conflict. In this case, neuroimaging is very useful, as it allows not only the determination of the neurovascular conflict of the trigeminal nerve, but also the ...

Correlation of Trigeminopontine Angle with Severity of Trigeminal Neuralgia due to Neurovascular Conflict over Medial Aspect of Nerve: Can We Prognosticate the Reduction in Pain in Patients on Medical Management? [PDF]
Background Neurovascular conflicts (NVCs) are one of the major causative factors in patients presenting with trigeminal neuralgia (TN). We found a wide range of variation in degrees of acute angle formed between medial border of trigeminal nerve and ...

Unilateral pure trigeminal motor neuropathy and neurovascular conflict [PDF]
Sensory disturbances are usual manifestations of trigeminal neuropathy, but only a few cases of isolated unilateral pure trigeminal motor neuropathy were reported. We describe a rare case of a 65-year-old woman who presented with a 4-year history of progressive facial asymmetry and chewing weakness which was shown on imaging ...

Trigeminal Neuralgia Due to Neurovascular Conflict: A Case Report [PDF]
A 47-year-old female patient visited the outpatient department with the complaint of "sharp shooting, radiating type of pain" on the maxillary left posterior gingiva for the last three months. The patient was advised a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan which gave the radiological diagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia (TN).

Neurovascular compression from a tortuous vertebrobasilar system. Technical note on surgical anatomy and cisternal microdissection [PDF]
Background Microvascular decompression (MVD) for trigeminal neuralgia (TGN) typically entails mobilisation of the superior cerebellar artery or adjacent veins. Rarely, symptomatic compression arises from a tortuous vertebrobasilar system. These cases are
