چکیده
|
Glossopharyngeal neuralgia -gpn- is a pain syndrome caused by irritation of the ninth cranial nerve. it is clinically and pathophysiologically comparable to trigeminal neuralgia -tn- with similar treatment options for both entities. the clinical case we are addressing is a gpn secondary to an ipsilateral compressive cerebellar mega-tonsil, with no previous reports of the same etiology in the medical literature. decompression without tonsillectomy was sufficient for pain relief.
