Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.ABSTRACT Reports on surgical treatment for postherpetic trigeminal neuralgia after COVID vaccination have not been found in the literature. Here, we described a case of postherpetic trigeminal neuralgia after COVID vaccination that was treated with percutaneous retrogasserian glycerol rhizotomy (PRGR) resulting in complete pain relief.

Efficacy of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy for Postherpetic Neuralgia. [PDF]
Pain PractABSTRACT Objective Traditional therapies for postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) and postherpetic itch (PHI) often yield unsatisfactory outcomes. Previous investigations on extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) have demonstrated positive outcomes in pain and itch reduction in conditions resembling PHI and PHN, exhibiting neuropathic mechanisms.

GCN5L1 Aggravates Postherpetic Neuralgia Through Regulating Microglial Mitochondrial Fission-Fusion Homeostasis. [PDF]
J Cell Mol MedABSTRACT Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is a debilitating chronic pain condition following varicella‐zoster virus (VZV) reactivation, characterised by persistent neuroinflammation. However, the intracellular mechanisms that drive microglial activation and sustained pain sensitisation remain poorly understood. Due to mice having no VZV infection receptor,

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021 Abstract Objective Trigeminal postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is often refractory to treatment. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) neuromodulation can help in preventing PHN after herpes zoster. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of two different PRF modes on gasserian ganglion neuromodulation in elderly patients with acute/subacute trigeminal ...
