Acute V3 Hypesthesia following Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy for Drug-Resistant Epilepsy.
Three studies have reported trigeminal hypesthesia following temporal lobe resection. However, no cases of hypesthesia have been reported following laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT). We report the first case of trigeminal hypesthesia as a complication of otherwise successful LITT in a patient with drug-resistant epilepsy. A 58-year-old male with drug-resistant epilepsy secondary to a left parahippocampal gyrus multinodular and vacuolating neuronal tumor underwent biopsy and MRI-guided LITT. Immediately postoperatively, the patient reported hypesthesia in the left V3 distribution, including inside the mouth and ear. At 6-month follow-up, hypesthesia was present but improving, and the patient was seizure-free. While the cerebellopontine angle and prepontine cisterns are considered thermal insulators, we hypothesize that thermal injury was conducted through these spaces to the cisternal segment of the trigeminal nerve or to the inferior V3 branch in Meckel's cave. Moreover, real-time visualization of the ablation is impacted by a blind spot at the skull base, created from bone disruption of MRI thermography.
期刊介绍:
''Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery'' provides a single source for the reader to keep abreast of developments in the most rapidly advancing subspecialty within neurosurgery. Technological advances in computer-assisted surgery, robotics, imaging and neurophysiology are being applied to clinical problems with ever-increasing rapidity in stereotaxis more than any other field, providing opportunities for new approaches to surgical and radiotherapeutic management of diseases of the brain, spinal cord, and spine. Issues feature advances in the use of deep-brain stimulation, imaging-guided techniques in stereotactic biopsy and craniotomy, stereotactic radiosurgery, and stereotactically implanted and guided radiotherapeutics and biologicals in the treatment of functional and movement disorders, brain tumors, and other diseases of the brain. Background information from basic science laboratories related to such clinical advances provides the reader with an overall perspective of this field. Proceedings and abstracts from many of the key international meetings furnish an overview of this specialty available nowhere else. ''Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery'' meets the information needs of both investigators and clinicians in this rapidly advancing field.
