Linear accelerator stereotactic radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia.
BACKGROUND Stereotactic radiosurgery is accepted as an alternative for patients with refractory trigeminal neuralgia, but existing evidence is fundamentally based on the Gamma Knife, which is a specific device for intracranial neurosurgery, available in few facilities. Over the last decade it has been shown that the use of linear accelerators can achieve similar diagnostic accuracy and equivale...
متن کاملLINAC‐based stereotactic radiosurgery for treatment of trigeminal neuralgia
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a disabling pain condition that has classically been treated using either surgical or medical techniques. Several researchers have shown that stereotactically delivered radiation can be an effective tool in the amelioration of this condition. For these studies, the Gamma Knife was used to deliver the radiation treatment. The target location was designated as the pro...
متن کاملRadiosurgery for Trigeminal Neuralgia
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN), also known as tic douloureux, is a pain syndrome recognizable by patient history alone. The condition is characterized by intermittent unilateral facial pain. The pain follows the unilateral (>95%) sensory distribution of trigeminal nerve (V), typically radiating to the maxillary (V2) or mandibular (V3) area. Ophthalmic division (V1) pain alone occurs in <5% patients....
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia.
Stereotactic radiosurgery is an increasingly used and the least invasive surgical option for patients with medically refractory trigeminal neuralgia (TN). The authors began use of this technique at our center in 1992 and have evaluated outcomes serially. Independently acquired data from 220 patients with idiopathic TN that had Gamma Knife radiosurgery was reviewed. The median radiosurgery dose ...
متن کاملLinac-stereotactic radiosurgery (LSRS) in the management of trigeminal neuralgia.
18603 Background: Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) with the Gamma Knife (GK) has been used successfully in the treatment of Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN). Results have been comparable to open surgery. There have been few reports with the use of LSRS in the management of TN. We report our updated results with LSRS in the treatment of TN. METHODS Between 2000 and 2006, 37 patients with medically ref...
