Synopsis

Trigeminal Neuralgia is an often debilitating condition that presents the physician with the dual challenges of differential diagnosis and management. Accurate diagnosis is particularly important, since treatment of the various types of facial pain is very different. The author gives a thorough analysis of the differential diagnosis of facial pain, highlighting those areas where mistakes are most likely to occur, and giving practical advice on avoiding them. In the absence of diagnostic tests, a good clinical history is crucial, and Dr. Zakrzeska guides the reader through the complex task of obtaining and interpreting a facial pain history.
