Facial pain associated with disturbances of sensitivity as a sign of injury of the trigeminal nerve is difficult to treat. Drug therapy as well as blocking procedures are generally ineffective. Transcutaneous nerve stimulation offers a new possibility for pain alleviation but is inconvenient for the patient. A method for stimulation of the gasserian ganglion via an implanted electrode has been developed. Five cases are reported on and they all experienced excellent or good pain relief. Follow-up is 6-21 months.
与感觉障碍相关的面部疼痛作为三叉神经损伤的体征很难治疗。药物治疗以及阻滞程序通常无效。经皮神经刺激为缓解疼痛提供了一种新的可能性，但对患者来说不方便。一种通过植入电极刺激半月神经节的方法已经被开发出来。报告了5例病例，他们都经历了极好或良好的疼痛缓解。随访时间为6至21个月。
