Trigeminal neuroma
Neurinoma (or schwannoma) is a benign tumor that develops from lemmocytes - auxiliary cells of nerve tissue that form along the axons of peripheral nerve fibers. Neurinoma is characterized by slow development, sometimes acquires the properties of a malignant tumor. Trigeminal neuroma is the second most diagnosed after brain neuroma.
The clinical picture of trigeminal neuroma depends on the size of the tumor, includes the following symptoms:
- sensory disturbance, head numbness ;
- decreased strength of the masticatory muscles;
- nausea, vomiting, severe headache;
- disorder of sensations of perception (smell, taste, etc.);
- trigeminal neuralgia.
A neuroma of the trigeminal nerve of the head is a neoplasm that develops within the boundaries of the skull on the trigeminal node (ophthalmic, maxillary, mandibular nerve). The neuroma is most often unilateral.
Methods of diagnosis and treatment of trigeminal neuroma
The list of diagnostic examinations is selected by a neurosurgeon or a neurologist. Diagnostic measures begin with the exclusion of pathologies with a similar clinical picture. An examination is carried out, the conjunctival (corneal) and mandibular reflexes are examined, the patient's complaints are revealed, etc.
With trigeminal neuroma, the doctor prescribes ultrasound, MRI or CT with contrast. Electroneuromyography may also be prescribed to assess the paency of electrical impulses.
After the final diagnosis is made, the cost of therapy is determined. The cost formation is influenced by the results of the examination, the severity of the symptoms, the stage of the disease.
The trigeminal neuromas are surgically removed or irradiated.
