However, there are also some cases of pain in the hemifacial region related to certain diseases of the pontine-cerebellar region such as multiple sclerosis (multiple sclerosis), meningioma, schwannomas, dermoid cysts. epidermoid cyst )...
Causes of nerve pain V:
When nerve pain V, the function of nerve seems to be destroyed. The disease is caused by the point of contact between a blood vessel (vein or an artery) and the Vth nerve, which creates pressure on the nerve and impairs function. Nerve pain may be caused by the elderly or related to fibrotic diseases or diseases that destroy the myelin sheath and protect the nerve.

Contraindications for laparoscopic surgery when the patient refuses to undergo laparoscopic surgery; patients who cannot afford anesthesia or elderly people over 70 years old 2.2. Surgical treatment of nerve pain V Step 1: Open the skull: Make a 4cm skin incision along the bisectors between the angle of the transverse venous sinus and the sigmoid vein. Exposing skull bones. Drill the skull and widen the cap at the angle between the transverse sinus and the sigmoid sinus. Cranial opening diameter 2.53cm.
Step 2: Open the T-shaped or star-shaped sclera. Place microsurgery or endoscope 00. Microsurgery is used to aspirate cerebrospinal fluid, and helps in preliminary evaluation of the anatomical structure of the glomerulus. The endoscope is then used to conclude a detailed evaluation of these regional structures.
Step 3: Exploration of nerve number V: evaluate the entire length of nerve V at the pontic angle, including from the position of the pons until the V nerve enters the temporal fossa.
Step 4: Determine the compression between the V cord and blood vessels (microsurgery, endoscope):
Step 5: After determining the exact location, extent and number of blood vessels compressing the V cord, the doctor will separate the V nerve from the blood vessel for the patient. Cut the soft membrane with scissors after dissection of the blood vessel from the V. We can use microsurgery or endoscope. After separating the blood vessel from the nerve, an artificial material or muscle is placed between the blood vessel and the nerve.
Step 6: After checking clearly that there is no bleeding at the cerebellar pontine angle, close the dural lens with 4/0 or 5/0 non-absorbable prolene sutures. The doctor will have to patch the dura with muscle fascia and membrane. bone when the dura is missing.
