Abstract

Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is characterized by an abrupt unilateral facial pain disorder triggered by spesific stimuli such as light touch, smiling, tooth brushing, and chewing. Vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia is an uncommon cause of trigeminal neuralgia. Because the treatment for the patients with TN secondary to vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia should be different from common trigeminal neuralgia patients, vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia should be diagnosed. Vertebrobasilar dolichoectasia is easily detected CT or MRI.

Özet

Trigeminal nevralji, dile dokunma, gülme, diș fırçalama, çiklet çiğneme gibi spesifik uyarılar ile tetiklenen, tek taraflı ani yüz ağrıları ile karakterize bir durumdur. Vertebrobaziler dolikoektazi, trigeminal nevraljinin nadir bir nedenidir. Trigeminal nevralji nedeni olarak vertebrobaziler dolikoektazinin tanınması, diğer nedenlere göre tedavisinin farklı olması nedeniyle önemlidir. Vertebrobaziler dolikoektazi, BT veya MRG ile kolaylıkla tanınabilir.
