DINATALE, E.. Osteopatía Alveolar Cavitaria asociada a Neuralgia Sintomática del Trigémino: Reporte de un caso . Acta odontol. venez [online]. 2004, vol.42, n.3, pp.195-198. ISSN 0001-6365.

In the present study: a case of trigeminal nerve neuralgia associated to a chronic alveolar osteopathy developed after a surgical removal of an impacted maxillary canine removal was reported. The present case was diagnosed after excisional biopsy of the lesion and the treatment included surgical removal. After surgical treatment, total remission of the symptoms was observed. This unusual case may offer diagnostic difficulties, resulting in some cases in acute episodes.
