Abstract
BACKGROUND: Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is defined as spontaneous pain in the region of the trigeminal nerve that seriously affects a patient's quality of life. Percutaneous balloon compression of the trigeminal ganglion is a simple and reproducible surgical procedure that reduces the incidence of TN, but the postoperative outcome is poor in some patients, with it being ineffective or TN recurring.
