Peter J. Jannetta, the neurosurgeon/neuroscientist who has
contributed so much to the evaluation and treatment of trigeminal
neuralgia and other cranial nerve disorders brings together the
most distinguished contributors in Trigeminal Neuralgia.
This seminal work collates and categorizes in one succinct volume
what we understand about the various forms of face pain syndromes.
By providing information on former beliefs, as well as current
understanding, this book provides multiple options regarding
diagnosis, medical treatment and operative intervention which will
help decision making, develop knowledge and improve care of
patients.
Trigeminal Neuralgia begins with an Introduction explaining where
we were and what role those ideas have played in current thinking,
all with the goal of giving the reader a basis for future thought.
With each subsequent chapter - written by basic scientists and
astute clinicians working in the area of facial pain - enigmas are
clarified, solutions of apparently untreatable problems are
presented, and a better understanding of how diagnoses and
pathophysiology are evolving are presented.
This is a must read for all who would learn about neurogenic facial
pain.
