technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a medical device for minimally invasive treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. Background technique
[0002] Trigeminal nerve microballoon compression technique is an important minimally invasive technique for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. This technology achieves pain relief by dilating a balloon in the McBurney's capsule of the trigeminal nerve, compressing the trigeminal nerve, destroying the pain-sensing fibers of the trigeminal nerve by mechanical pressure, and blocking pain transmission. In fact, in addition to the nerve fibers that control pain, there are also nerve fibers that control facial touch and masticatory muscle movement in the trigeminal nerve. Therefore, when the microballoon compresses the trigeminal nerve in the McBurney's capsule, along with the damage to the pain sensory fibers, the tactile sensory fibers and motor fibers are often also compressed and damaged together. Due to the different diameters...
