Abstract OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness percutaneous, controlled radiofrequency trigeminal rhizotomy (RF-TR). outcome 1600 patients with idiopathic neuralgia after RF-TR analyzed a follow-up period 1 25 years. METHODS A total underwent 2138 percutaneous procedures between 1974 and 1999. Sixty-seven had bilateral neuralgia, 36 them were treated RF-TR; 1216 (76%) successfully managed single procedure, remainder multiple procedures. Benzodiazepines...
Craniopharyngiomas are benign neoplasms of epithelial origin that arise from the remnants Rathke's pouch and located in sellar, parasellar, third ventricular regions. Despite major advances microsurgical techniques, total removal these tumors is associated with a high risk death, long-term endocrinological dependence, cognitive dysfunction, behavioral disorders. For patients monocystic craniopharyngiomas, encouraging postoperative survival rates cyst regression after intracavitary...
OBJECTIVE: Vagoglossopharyngeal and geniculate neuralgias are less frequently seen types of cranial neuralgias. Their causes symptomatology similar to those trigeminal neuralgia; however, the complex anatomic relationship between intermedius, vagal, glossopharyngeal nerves leads difficulties in diagnosis management originating from these nerves. Numerous procedures have been used treat intractable VIIth, IXth, Xth nerves: 1) extracranial sectioning nerves, 2) percutaneous thermal rhizotomy,...
OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE: Several neurosurgical procedures have been developed for the treatment of idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia: vascular decompression root in brainstem, percutaneous ganglion procedures, and external beam radiosurgery. Percutaneous radiofrequency electrodes target fibers gasserian through foramen ovale. complications rhizotomy (RF-TR) described, including puncture carotid artery, cavernous sinus, cranial nerves. This study presents a very rare complication RF-TR,...

Glioblastoma is very rare in the pineal region.We report a case of glioblastoma this region.This 18th primary region and second that survived over two years according literature.A 60-year-old man admitted with headache ataxia continued for last 3 months.Physical examination was normal.Neurological revealed ataxia.There no motor or sensory deficit.Computer tomography showed triventricular hydrocephalus isodense rounded mass region.Magnetic resonance images regular-edged heterogeneous...
Abstract OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE Chiari Type I malformation is an important pathological state in which the brainstem compressed by cerebellar tonsil. We present a case of glossopharyngeal neuralgia caused malformation. CLINICAL PRESENTATION A 50-year-old male patient was admitted with neuralgia. Magnetic resonance imaging studies revealed caudal displacement left INTERVENTION Small occipital craniectomy and C1 laminectomy were performed. The tonsil resected. CONCLUSION This compression...
Neurodestructive procedures have been used for treating intractable pain a long time. Pulsed radiofrequency (RF) is newly defined energy type. RF may be in the treatment of patients with some syndromes whom could not controlled by alternative techniques. The objective present study was to examine histological and electron microscopical changes rat brain after pulsed application.Forty-five male rats were these experiments. Lesions applied stereotactically target areas brains. Two different...

OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE Idiopathic inflammatory trigeminal sensory neuropathy (IITSN) is a disorder with the dominant clinical features of disturbance; this idiopathic condition follows benign course in most cases. Recent reports have shown that transient abnormalities, which may mimic those neuromas, can be observed magnetic resonance imaging scans. Presented here case IITSN was diagnosed, cytological and histopathological verification, during active phase disease (the first such attempt,...
Percutaneous bilateral cordotomy performed using conventional techniques may cause the patient to develop sleep-induced apnea due destruction of ventrolateral reticulospinal tract. Computerized tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous a newly designed needle electrode system has advantages safe, selective, and controlled lesioning under direct visualization in lateral spinothalamic Given its low complication rate, selective with CT guidance this new prove be treatment choice for cancer patients...
