Surgery for nerve compression by blood vessels
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mouth & dental, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at surgery for people who might have a nerve being pressed by a blood vessel, called a neurovascular conflict. It aims to see who might benefit from surgery and how well the treatment works.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how pain changes after a surgery called microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia, a condition that causes sharp facial pain. It aims to better understand the outcomes of this procedure to help improve care.
This trial tests a surgery that frees the trigeminal nerve (the nerve that causes sharp facial pain) from being wrapped in band-like tissue. It’s for people with trigeminal neuralgia whose pain is not controlled by medicine and who don’t have the more common causes of the pain (a blood vessel or tumor pressing on the nerve).
This study measures nerve activity (electrical signals in nerves) in people who have trigeminal neuralgia and are getting a common facial pain procedure. It may help researchers better understand the condition and improve future treatments.
This study compares two types of radiofrequency treatment (using heat to disable the pain nerve) for trigeminal neuralgia, a condition that causes sudden, severe facial pain. If your pain hasn't improved with medication, this trial may offer a more targeted way to relieve it.
This study follows people with trigeminal neuralgia to see how radiosurgery treatment affects their facial pain. It may help doctors better understand who benefits when medicines do not control the pain enough.
This study collects data from people having brain or spine surgery for many different conditions. It aims to understand how well different treatments work and how people recover. If you are scheduled for certain brain, spine, or nerve surgeries, you may be able to join.
