RESUMEN
Introducción: La neuralgia del trigémino se define por la IASP (Asociación Internacional para el Estudio del Dolor) como «dolor paroxístico, unilateral, severo, penetrante, de corta duración y recurrente en la distribución de una o varias de las ramas del V par craneal». Puede ser esencial o secundaria. Su prevalencia es alta y ha ido aumentando junto con la expectativa de vida, constituye el 89% de las neuralgias faciales en personas mayores de 60 años.
Anatomía: El nervio trigémino (V par craneal) es el más grande de los nervios craneales, es mixto y se divide en: nervio oftálmico (sensitivo) que atraviesa la hendidura esfenoidal por la fisura orbitaria superior, nervio maxilar (sensitivo) y nervio mandibular (sensitivo y motor).
Diagnóstico: Se basa en el cuadro clínico con exploración física y neurológica. Existen estudios complementarios como placas simples (Rx), potenciales evocados, TAC y la RM cerebral, los cuales están enfocados a diferenciar entre una neuralgia esencial o secundaria.
Tratamiento: Es multimodal, se inicia con fármacos utilizando anticonvulsivos, antidepresivos y opioides débiles, hasta llegar a procedimientos intervensionistas.
