Glossopharyngeal neuralgia is an uncommon, but devastating pain condition. It shares many features with trigeminal neuralgia, but predominantly affects the posterior tongue and pharynx. Since glossopharyngeal neuralgia pain is frequently triggered by swallowing or movement of the tongue, patients frequently present with weight loss and dehydration. This chapter describes the classic features of this condition, including its association with syncope. The medical management of glossopharyngeal neuralgia is outlined as a primary treatment modality. Surgical considerations are also described, including microvascular decompression or sectioning of the glossopharyngeal nerve. Surgical pearls for both of these procedures are outlined, as well as strategies for complication avoidance and management.
