✓ Between March 1990 and December 1992, 23 patients with chronic intractable facial pain due to various forms of injury to the trigeminal nerve or nerve root underwent implantation of an electrical stimulating system to treat their pain. All patients had failed previous extensive pain treatment efforts. A monopolar platinum-iridium electrode was implanted on the trigeminal nerve root via percutaneous puncture of the foramen ovale. All patients experienced at least 50% reduction in pain intensity during a period of trial stimulation and underwent internalization of the electrode and connection to a completely implanted pulse generator. Independent assessment of the effect of stimulation was obtained by a specially trained nurse practitioner. Over a mean follow-up period of 24 months, six patients reported nearly complete relief of pain and six others reported at least a 50% reduction in pain intensity using a visual analog scale. Thus, 12 (52%) of the 23 patients achieved 50% or greater reduction in pain intensity. Although changes in the patterns of analgesic medication usage were few, six patients (26%) now experience a normal life style. Only one complication was seen, namely a dislocated electrode, which was easily replaced. Chronic electrical stimulation of the trigeminal nerve root appears to be an easy and safe technique for providing relief of chronic facial pain related to injury to the trigeminal nerve in a significant number of patients.
