Overview

This study aims to evaluate the outcome of patient treated by radiosurgery on LINAC with high dose rate for classical trigeminal neuralgia

Description

This retrospective and prospective case-series hospital-based study will be conducted in all patients with trigeminal neuralgia treated by radiosurgery on LINAC at the Centre Hospitalier Princesse Grace from april 2018 to january 2028. Patients will be treated with frameless technic and receive 90 Gy delivered with high dose rate on the intra cisternal portion of the trigeminal nerve.
