Evaluation of the effects of personalized 3D-printed jig plate-assisted puncture in trigeminal balloon compression.

Authors

Abstract

Percutaneous microballoon compression (PMC) is a simple and effective surgical procedure for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. The difficulty with this surgery is related to accurate and quick foramen ovale puncture. In this study, we compared the application of personalized 3D-printed guides and the traditional puncture method in trigeminal PMC surgery.
