A study to evaluate neurovascular conflict of trigeminal nerve in trigeminal neuralgia patients with the help of 1.5 T MR imaging

The Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2022
Introduction Trigeminal neuralgia is a neuropathic pain that occurs in the sensory supply region of the trigeminal nerve (V cranial nerve). The common etiology of trigeminal neuralgia is said to be vascular compression on the trigeminal nerve root.

Trigeminal neuralgia

Diagnostic and Interventional Imaging, 2013
Two different clinical entities, essential or secondary neuralgia, are associated with different pathologies. The pathways of CN V comprise the cervical spine, the brainstem, the root of the nerve and the three peripheral branches: V1, V2 and V3.

Classical trigeminal neuralgia is associated with gephyrin and sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 8

Frontiers in Dental Medicine, 2023
Trigeminal neuralgia is highly debilitating, and its etiology is still undefined. The goal of this work was to define associations between well-characterized trigeminal neuralgia cases and common genetic variants in the population.

Trigeminal Neuralgia Caused by Pontocerebellar Angle Epidermoid Tumor: A Case Report and Review of Literature

Türk Nöroloji Dergisi, 2015
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is the most commonly seen craniofacial pain syndrome. Etiology of TN can be divided into classical (idiopathic and vascular compression) and symptomatic (tumor, demyelinating, and ischemic) types.

13. Trigeminal Neuralgia. [PDF]

Pain Pract
ABSTRACTIntroductionTrigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a disorder characterized by recurrent, unilateral brief electric shock‐like pains, abrupt in onset and termination, limited to the distribution of one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve, and triggered by innocuous stimuli.MethodsThe literature on the diagnosis and treatment of TN was retrieved and ...

Increased risk of tinnitus following a trigeminal neuralgia diagnosis: a one-year follow-up study

The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2020
Background Tinnitus due to hyperactivity across neuronal ensembles along the auditory pathway is reported. We hypothesized that trigeminal neuralgia patients may subsequently suffer from tinnitus.

Pituitary Adenoma Presenting As Trigeminal Neuralgia

Indian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2017
Compression of trigeminal nerve in cavernous sinus leading to trigeminal neuralgia is one of the rare presentations of pituitary tumor. We report a patient whose presenting complaint was trigeminal neuralgia in V1, V2 distribution and he had pituitary ...

Narrow ovale foramina may be involved in the development of primary trigeminal neuralgia

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundThe etiology of primary trigeminal neuralgia remains unclear and is worthy of further study; In this study, the morphometric characteristics of ovale foramina between various groups were compared and analyzed to explore the novel cause of ...

Trigeminal Nerve Root Demyelination Not Seen in Six Horses Diagnosed with Trigeminal-Mediated Headshaking

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2017
Trigeminal-mediated headshaking is an idiopathic neuropathic facial pain syndrome in horses. There are clinical similarities to trigeminal neuralgia, a neuropathic facial pain syndrome in man, which is usually caused by demyelination of trigeminal ...
