Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a rare neuropathic pain disorder characterized by recurrent, paroxysmal episodes of short-lasting severe electric shock-like pain along the sensory distribution of the trigeminal nerve. Recent classification systems group TN into 3 main categories depending on the underlying pathophysiology. This article will present a case history and review the epidemiology, diagnostic criteria, classification, clinical features, diagnostic investigations, pathophysiology, and management of TN.
