Pain-Free Outcomes and Durability of Surgical Intervention for Trigeminal Neuralgia: A Comparison of Gamma Knife and Microvascular Decompression
2018, World NeurosurgeryCitation Excerpt :The MVD group included 18 articles with 2650 patients, and the GKS group included 25 articles with 2846 patients.1,5-45 The MVD group had46,47 a significantly higher rate of initial pain-free outcomes (BNI I) compared with GKS (92.22% vs. 61.46%, P < 0.0001) (Table 2). Additionally, MVD was found to have a significantly higher rate of long-term pain-free outcomes at last follow-up compared with GKS (79.37% vs. 41.62%, P < 0.0001) (Table 2).
