VASONEURAL COMPRESSION: RELATIONS BETWEEN VESSEL AND REZ IN PАTIENTS WITH TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA

https://doi.org/10.22328/2079-5343-2016-1-54-57

Abstract

Trigeminal neuralgia in most cases caused by compression of trigeminal nerve or its branches with vessels. Compression may locate in root entry zone (REZ) or in a distance from it. The aim of the study is to compare distances from REZ of trigeminal nerve to offending vessel on the symptomatic side to distance to the same vessel on asymptomatic side. Comparing this distances showed significantly shorter distance on symptomatic side. Thus, it could be concluded that this factor has its part in development of trigeminal neuralgia.
