Evaluation of the characteristics and dental treatments in a Brazilian series of idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia (ITN) patients.
Forty-eight subjects with ITN were interviewed and evaluated according to a systematized approach.
(a) location of the trigger zone, intraoral in 64.58%; (b) comorbidities, 18 patients (hypertension in 9); (c) treatment with dental procedures for ITN according to duration of pain (31), 44.44% (during the first year), 50.00% (1-5 years), 80.00% (5-10 years), and 100.00% (>10 years). There was no correlation between trigger zone location and the frequency of previous dental procedures (P=.667). There was significant statistical correlation between the number of patients who underwent dental treatments and the duration of ITN (P=.004).
(a) Demographic characteristics of this sample are similar to those described in the literature, (b) the dental procedures were not correlated with location of trigger zone, and (c) patients with long-lasting ITN had more number of previous dental procedures.
评估巴西一组特发性三叉神经痛(ITN)患者的特征及牙科治疗情况。
采用系统化方法对48例ITN患者进行访谈和评估。
(a)触发区位置,口内触发区占64.58%;(b)合并症,18例患者(9例患有高血压);(c)根据疼痛持续时间接受ITN牙科治疗的情况(31例),疼痛第一年接受治疗的占44.44%,1 - 5年的占50.00%,5 - 10年的占80.00%,超过10年的占100.00%。触发区位置与既往牙科治疗频率之间无相关性(P = 0.667)。接受牙科治疗的患者数量与ITN持续时间之间存在显著统计学相关性(P = 0.004)。
(a)该样本的人口统计学特征与文献中描述的数据相似;(b)牙科治疗与触发区位置无关;(c)ITN病程较长的患者既往接受牙科治疗的次数更多。
