متن کاملThe treatment of trigeminal neuralgia in patients with multiple sclerosis using percutaneous radiofrequency rhizotomy.
BACKGROUND Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) has a higher incidence among patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) than in the general population. This cohort of MS patients with TN presents a series of management challenges including poor tolerance of antineuralgic medications and occasional bilateral presentation.
