Sensations(pain, touch temperature) from face on each side is carried to our brain by a nerve called TRIGEMINAL NERVE.
Irritation of this nerve due to Certain abnormal blood vessel compression, tumor etc can cause severe electric shock like sensation with debilitating facial pain. There can be some specific triggers that can start this pain as shown in pic. Many a times it mimics toothache and hence land up in multiple tooth extraction if not seen by a qualified doctor well in time. This pain is usually not relieved in spite of multiple medications, and its near death experience for such patients.
Recently operated One such patient who presented with severe facial pain not relieved by medication. Clinical history was suggestive of trigeminal neuralgia. There was a blood vessel compressing the trigeminal nerve at the site of its origin( REZ) from brain stem ( Pons).
Removal of this compression provides best possible outcome. After explaining all risk and benefit of other available options patient opted for surgical intervention.
Vascular compression was removed. Patient recovered fully. Now he is asymptomatic and not on any medicine. Microvascular Decompression of trigeminal nerve provides best outcome in such cases.
Neuro vascular surgery is advanced branch in neurosurgery being done at selected centers now available at my center.
