Care should be taken when choosing trigeminal neuralgia treatment, as the number of patients with trigeminal neuralgia is increasing, and with it the number of hospitals treating trigeminal neuralgia. So trigeminal neuralgia should be chosen with care when choosing treatment. The formal treatments for trigeminal neuralgia include drugs, gamma knife treatment, radiofrequency treatment, microvascular decompression, etc. At present, various methods and devices for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia have sprung up, and there are so many different patterns that it is inevitable to mix them up, so you should make the right choice according to the actual situation. Gamma knife treatment of trigeminal nerve pain Treatment principle: a large dose of gamma radiation irradiation trigeminal nerve root nociceptive conduction nerve, blocking the nociceptive conduction pathway, so as to produce local necrosis or functional changes, the operation takes about 60 minutes. Treatment characteristics: direct destruction of the nerve. The treatment must be installed with a head frame, and the effect of the treatment is usually known only after 3-6 months, and the pain cannot be relieved immediately. Complications and risks: severe numbness of the face is the main complication of Gamma Knife treatment for trigeminal neuralgia, some patients will have chewing disorder caused by abnormal sensation, and inaccurate focus can damage other brain nerves, resulting in serious consequences. Microvascular decompression: Generally, most of the causes of this disease are caused by intracranial vascular compression of the nerve, which can be isolated from the nerve root by microvascular decompression with a special material spacer. In the vast majority of patients, the pain disappears immediately after surgery, and normal facial sensation and function are preserved without affecting the quality of life.
