Glossopharyngeal neuralgia and hypoglossal nerve palsy: A singular clinical case of two rare concomitant neurovascular conflicts
As far as we know, in this article, we present the first singular case in the literature of concomitant classical GPN and HNP due to NVC involving both the VA and the PICA. Despite the low incidence of GPN and HNP, clinical picture and intraoperative findings represent clear and reliable elements for their diagnosis. MVD is a successful therapeutic strategy that offers a long-term cure for GPN and HNP.
