Trigeminal Neuralgia NY: Long Island Neurosurgeon
Trigeminal Neuralgia is a disease in which patients get sharp intermittent pains in their face. There are several different treatment options available for treating this disease including medication, and five different surgical procedures: percutaneous rhizotomy (radio frequency, glycerol, and balloon techniques), Gamma Knife radiosurgery, and craniotomy, (microvascular decompression). Patients go home the day of surgery except in the case of craniotomy, which requires a brief hospital stay. Any one of these procedures may be the best choice for a particular patient. Michael H. Brisman, MD. F.A.C.S., and Dr. Brown, MD, F.A.C.S., specialize in trigeminal neuralgia. Together, they are able to offer the full range of medical and surgical accepted options for the treatment of complex facial pain syndromes including trigeminal neuralgia.
