Abstract:
Objective To investigate the related factors of percutaneous balloon compression (PBC) for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia complicating cerebrovascular disease in order to reduce the incidence of surgical complications. Methods The clinical data in patients with trigeminal neuralgia complicating cerebrovascular disease treated with PBC in the People's Hospital of Liaoning Province from December 2000 to December 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. The reasons for its occurrence were investigated. Results Of the 6 759 patients with trigeminal neuralgia who received PBC treatment, 10 (0. 15％ ) developed cerebrovascular disease,and 2 of them had arteriovenous fistula; 5 patients developed intracranial hemorrhage: 2 acute subdural hemorrhage, 2 intraventricular hemorrhage with subarachnoid hemorrhage, and 1 small amount of bleeding in brain stem; 1 patient developed internal carotid hemorrhage during the intraoperative puncture and the operation was stopped temporarily, and he was reoperated successfully after 2 weeks; 2 patients had cerebral infarction, they were all in the risk population of cerebrovascular disease, and 3 weeks after treatment, their disease conditions were improved. One of them left severe paralysis of limbs at discharge. Condusions The treatment of trigeminal neuralgia with PBC is safe and the incidence of cerebrovascular complications is lower. The surgical operations and blood pressure changes are the important causes of cerebrovascular complications.
