  • Title: [Early and late results of treating trigeminal neuralgia by Gasserian ganglioglycerolysis using a personal subjective pain measurement scale].
    Author: Janik S.
    Journal: Ann Acad Med Stetin; 1998; 44():155-74. PubMed ID: 9857537.
    Abstract:
    The results of treating 61 patients suffering from trigeminal neuralgia by Gasserian ganglioglycerolysis were estimated in the studies. The following features were considered: sex, age, side of pain, duration of symptoms, pharmacological therapy and the course glycerolysis procedure, with attention being paid to whether the CSF outflow is present or not. The ganglionglycerolysis procedure was modified to ensure that the needle is inserted directly in the ganglion, but not into periganglional space. The anesthetic effect was obtained by simultaneous glycerol injection and slow needle withdrawal. The recent and remote results were assessed by implementing own subjective pain sensibility scale, characterizing the therapeutic results and the frequency of disease recurrence.
