Analysis reveals that microvascular decompression improves outcomes in trigeminal neuralgia patients, indicating predictive factors for success.

Immediate improvement in pain was observed in 97.5% of patients post-surgery, reflecting the procedure's effectiveness.
The recurrence rate of pain after surgery was 21.2%, with patients experiencing recurrence typically within 18 months.
Evaluation involved 124 patients undergoing 132 surgical procedures with retrospective analysis of clinical and MRI data.
Patient conditions like TGN hypoesthesia served as significant predictors of long-term pain relief outcomes.

Roj et al. (2025) studied this question.
