Immediate consecutive microvascular decompression for bilateral classical trigeminal neuralgia
Consecutive bilateral MVD is a safe and effective option, comparable to non-consecutive procedures for treating BTN. This approach provides a viable alternative for patients with severe bilateral symptoms or when medical constraints limit the possibility of two separate surgeries. Further studies with larger cohorts and extended follow-up periods are needed to support these results.
