Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2007
The paroxysmal facial pain of trigeminal neuralgia is notoriously severe. Recent advances in medical science are achieving significant strides toward alleviating this incapacitating condition. High-resolution neuroimaging techniques are rendering detailed views of underlying neurovascular relationships.

Oral Diseases, 2007
Trigeminal neuropathies (TNs) are well recognized disorders characterized and manifesting as skin and mucosal numbness in the region innervated by the trigeminal nerve. Facial numbness indicates trigeminal sensory alteration affecting the trigeminal system. TNs always pose differential location difficulties as multiple diseases are capable of producing

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 1999
The initial treatment for trigeminal neuralgia is medical. Carbamazepine is the drug of choice. If the patient proves to be intolerant of carbamazepine, a number of second-line drugs are available, though data on their relative efficacy are nonexistent. Phenytoin, baclofen, clonazepam, and sodium valproate are all worthy of consideration. Oxcarbazepine

The Laryngoscope, 1975
AbstractTrigeminal neurinomas may produce atypical facial pain, loss of facial sensation, facial palsy, hearing loss, nystagmus, or vertigo, and thus may be confused with nasopharyngeal carcinomas or acoustic neurinomas. The diagnosis can be made by the clinical presentation together with radiographic features showing widening of the foramen ovale and ...

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2001
The trigeminal nerve is the largest of the cranial nerves, serving as a major conduit for sensory information from the head and neck and primarily providing motor innervation to the muscles of mastication. An understanding of the pathologic processes that may involve this nerve requires a detailed knowledge of its origin within the brain stem as well ...

We completed a retrospective study of 270 patients with essential trigeminal neuralgia treated by gamma knife surgery. The target was localized on the retro-Gasserian portion of the nerve with 90 Gy at maximum. Among them, 150 patients were followed up more than 2 years. They were divided into 2 groups: pre-APS (41 patients) and post-APS (109 patients)

Journal of Long-Term Effects of Medical Implants, 2006
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is the most common facial neuralgia, and is considered to be one of the most painful conditions to affect patients. The rate of occurrence of TN in men and women is 2.5 and 5.7 per 100,000 per year respectively. TN is generally characterized by lancinating, unilateral, paroxysmal pain occurring in the distribution of the fifth

Topics in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 1996
The trigeminal nerve is described in terms of segmental anatomy and regional pathology. The common brain stem lesions are neoplasms, vascular disease, and demyelinating processes. Common lesions affecting the cisternal segment and Meckel's cave are schwannoma, meningioma, epidermoid, vascular ectasia, and aneurysm.
