Article Synopsis
- This study reviewed pain assessment methods and factors affecting recovery after microvascular decompression surgery for primary trigeminal neuralgia.
- A systematic review included 995 studies with over 5,600 patients, highlighting that patients with artery compression of the trigeminal nerve had better surgery outcomes compared to those with venous compression.
- The findings indicate that while microvascular decompression is effective for managing primary trigeminal neuralgia, there's limited evidence on the effectiveness of pain assessment strategies used in these studies.
