Head flexion has been postulated as a means of ensuring glycerol containment in Meckel's cave. This method can help standardize this procedure for future systematic studies on the importance of head positioning post-PGR.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0043-1764323","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,4]],"date-time":"2023-03-04T00:12:25Z","timestamp":1677888745000},"page":"156-160","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["A Nod for Meckel: A Novel Surgical Position Utilizing Meckel's Cave Anatomy for Percutaneous Glycerol Rhizotomy in Trigeminal Neuralgia"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"85","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5051-8866","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Keaton Francis","family":"Piper","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery and Brain Repair, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida, United States"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gabriel","family":"Flores-Milan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery and Brain Repair, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida, United States"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alejandro Matos","family":"Cruz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Allegheny Health Network, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United State"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1552-5865","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jay I.","family":"Kumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery and Brain Repair, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida, United States"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Harry van","family":"Loveren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery and Brain Repair, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida, United States"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,3]]},"reference":[{"issue":"01","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"63","DOI":"10.1016\/S1042-3680(18)30338-3","article-title":"Percutaneous retrogasserian glycerol rhizotomy.
