Trigeminal Neuralgia Pain Relieving Surgery

This microvascular decompression surgery is performed on trigeminal neuralgia (TN) patients to relieve excruciating pain in the face by inserting a sponge-like device in between the artery and the trigeminal nerve. Anthony Asher, MD, neurosurgeon practicing as the medical director of Carolinas HealthCare System Neurosciences Institute, part of Atrium Health, performs this surgery by separating the artery and the nerve. The TN pain is relieved in the vast majority of patients.
