Abstract:
Objective To observe the short-term and long-term effect of microvascular decompression in patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN).Methods The chnical data of 180 patients with TN treated with microvascular decompression were retrospectively analyzed.The pain improvement of patients in 2 years was observed,combined with age and course of disease,as well as the type of pressure vessels,whether obvious impression and so on,to analysis the recurrence factors of TN.Results All patients were found with vascular compression,including 93 cases with apparent pressure pressing mark,85 cases with arterial compression,15 cases with venous compression,and 8 cases with arteriovenous compression,among of them 74 patients with artery compression had pressure pressing mark,and 11 patients with vascular compression had pressure pressing mark,all of 8 patients with arteriovenous compression had pressure pressing mark.One week postoperatively,the patients with vascular compression gained significant improvement,of which 79 cases achieved optimal,6 cases achieved good;9 patients with vascular compression achieved optimal,6 cases achieved good,and 5 patients with arteriovenous compression achieved optimal,3 cases achieved good.Follow-up for 1 year after surgery,artery compression recurred in 5 cases,of which 3 cases of part recurrence,2 cases of recurrence completely ;vascular compression recurred in 6 cases;arteriovenous compression recurred in 2 cases.Univariate analysis showed that the vascular compression type,bascular compression notch and duration were the risk factors of postoperative recurrence (P < 0.01).Multiple analysis showed that the vascular compression type,bascular compression degree and duration were the independent risk factors of postoperative recurrence (P < 0.05).Conclusions TN patients treatd with microvascular decompression have effective improvement.History of diease,vascular compression type and compression degree are the important influence factors of postoperative recurrence.
