Abstract
Background: Surgical treatment for trigeminal neuralgia includes percutaneous techniques, including balloon compression, first described in 1983 by Mullan and Lichtor (J Neurosurg 59(6):1007–1012, 6). Method: Here we present a safe and simple navigation-assisted percutaneous technique for balloon compression, which can also be used for glycerol injection. Conclusion: The navigation-assisted percutaneous technique for balloon compression for trigeminal neuralgia is a quick and safe treatment for patients not candidates for microvascular decompression.
