“…It has a higher cost than gabapentin, but it is considered more effective because it achieves the analgesic effect in a shorter time. It acts on calcium channels by reducing the release of excitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate at synapses [13]. One study proved its effectiveness in reducing TN pain in more than 50-74% of patients.…”

Trigeminal neuralgia (NT), also known as Fortherghill's disease or Prosopalgia Dolorosa (LEITÃO & FIGUEIRÊDO, 1985), is a disease mainly affected by middle-aged women, characterized by paroxysms of pain, shock and burning. During an episode of pain, the muscles of the face go into a state of intense contraction. Treatments range from laser therapy, electro acupuncture, use of anticonvulsants to surgeries, indicated for patients with failed pharmacological therapy (30%) and those who had a good initial response but became refractory to treatment over time. The percutaneous procedures most used today are radiofrequency thermocoagulation, glycerol rhizolysis (MENESES et al., 1994) and balloon decompression (HOLZER et al., 1992). The objective of this work is to refer to the different types of treatments for the disease, through a literature review and a clinical case report.

“…The approach to the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia varies greatly, but most authors agree that it should be gradual, from pharmacological therapy to very invasive, intracranial procedures [3][4][5][6][7]. Currently available surgical options are [8].…”

“…After taking upper vestibular incision infra orbital foramen was visualized & infra orbital nerve and its peripheral branches were identified & avulsion of the nerve was performed from the soft tissues and from the infra orbital canal by reeling on haemostat. (b) Inferior alveolar nerve was approached intra orally by Dr Ginwalla's incision [3] and the nerve was identified, avulsed from the distal end. Vestibular incision in premolar region was taken; the mental nerve was identified & avulsed from the mental foramen and from the soft tissues.…”

Aim Investigate the efficacy of peripheral neurectomy as a surgical procedure in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia and to evaluate the results obtained by this procedure and their recurrences in a period of three years followup. Materials and Methods Thirty patients were retrospectively reviewed who underwent peripheral neurectomy. The factors analyzed were the demographic details of the patients, side of involvement, branch of nerve involved and procedure used postoperative complications, prognosis and any additional procedure used in cases of recurrences. Results The mean age of the patient was 57.1 years (range 35-71 years) more were males (M:F = 1.73:1) and the surgical treatment was peripheral neurectomy of the involved branch following failure of carbamazepine therapy. There was no intra operative and postoperative complications noted and follow up over 3 years revealed only two cases (6.66%) of recurrence. Two patients were lost to followup, total number evaluated between 0 and 3 years after treatment was 28 patients. Conclusion Peripheral neurectomy is one of the oldest, minimal invasive forms of surgery, well tolerated by the patient and can be done under local anesthesia.
