Abstract
Microvascular decompression provides an appropriate therapeutic choice if vascular compression of the trigeminal nerve is identified. From our 2 cases, we propose that, in some cases of SUNCT diagnosed previously, characteristic symptoms were induced by compression of the side surface of the first branch of the trigeminal nerve at the root exit zone by the intracranial artery.
