In this article we describe six cases of glossopharyngeal neuralgia. The characteristic attacks of lancinating pain in throat, ear and tongue can be accompanied by symptoms such as coughing, hoarseness, stridor and fainting. These symptoms can also occur without the pain, which may lead to frequent misdiagnosis and unnecessary investigations. The drugs of choice are carbamazepine, phenytoin and lithium. Persisting symptoms may require an operation.
在本文中，我们描述了6例舌咽神经痛患者。咽喉、耳部及舌部的典型刀割样疼痛发作可伴有咳嗽、声音嘶哑、喘鸣及昏厥等症状。这些症状也可在无疼痛时出现，这可能导致频繁误诊及不必要的检查。首选药物为卡马西平、苯妥英钠及锂盐。症状持续存在可能需要手术治疗。
