Trigeminal Nerve Isolation Application in Microvascular Decompression for Treating Trigeminal Neuralgia : A Retrospective Study
Copyright © 2023 by Mutaz B. Habal, MD..
This study aimed to compare the outcomes of trigeminal nerve isolation (TNI) with conventional microvascular decompression (CMVD) in cases of trigeminal neuralgia (TN). We retrospectively reviewed 143 TN cases who underwent microvascular decompression from January 2017 to January 2020. The surgical management of TNI or CMVD in all patients was randomized. The cases were divided into two groups, one group underwent a TNI and the other one received CMVD. The general data, postoperative outcomes, and complications were reviewed retrospectively. Cases with a narrow cistern of cerebellopontine, short trigeminal nerve root, and arachnoid adhesion were defined as difficult cases. All of the cases were followed up for at least 1 year. Surgical outcomes were assessed and compared between the two groups. In results, we found no significant differences in the general data, duration of hospitalization and blood loss between the two procedures. However, of the 143 cases, 12 cases (17.1%) recurred after surgery in the CMVD group, and four cases (5.5%) recurred after TNI operation. The rates of pain relief were 69 (94.5%) in the CMVD group, and 58 (82.9%) for TNI ( P =0.027). In the TNI group, there was only one difficult case among four no pain-relief cases, while in the CMVD group, 10 difficult cases were found among the 12 no pain-relief cases ( P =0.008). In conclusion, the TNI technique is more effective than the CMVD procedure and could also be performed on patients with classical TN. Future double-blind and randomized controlled trials are necessary to confirm this result.
