The database of a headache clinic within a tertiary, university\u2010affiliated, pediatric medical center was searched for all patients aged 3\u201318\u00a0years presenting with clinical and epidemiological features of trigeminal neuralgia or trigeminal neuropathy from January 2015 to December 2019. The diagnosis was revised for the present study according to the criteria of the International Classification of Headache Disorders, third edition. Data on demographic parameters, clinical symptoms, treatment, and outcome were collected from the medical files.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of the 1040 patients who presented to our clinic during the study period, five (0.5%) were diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia. Mean patient age was 15.1\u00a0\u00b1\u00a03.0 years (range 9.5\u201317.5; 95% CI 10.8\u201318.9). All had idiopathic type: purely paroxysmal in one and with concomitant continuous pain in four. Findings on herpes serology in all five and magnetic resonance imaging were normal in four patients. In the fifth, a vascular ring was noted from the superior cerebellar artery around the right trigeminal nerve without radiologic evidence of vascular nerve compression. All patients were initially treated with carbamazepine: one reported partial relief, two did not respond, and two had severe adverse effects. Three patients were switched to gabapentin but only one responded well. Three patients were treated with nerve block.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Trigeminal neuralgia accounted for only a small proportion of patients seeking treatment for headache in pediatric headache clinic over a 5\u2010year period. Unlike findings in adults, vascular compression was not the underlying mechanism in any of our patients. The response to pharmacologic treatment was poor. Nerve block may serve as an alternative when pharmacologic treatment fails.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/head.14023","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,24]],"date-time":"2020-11-24T22:31:47Z","timestamp":1606257107000},"page":"137-142","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Trigeminal neuralgia in children and adolescents: Experience of a tertiary pediatric headache clinic"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"61","author":[{"given":"Anna","family":"Brameli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Pediatric Headache Clinic Day Hospitalization Department Schneider Children\u2019s Medical Center of Israel Petach Tikva Israel"},{"name":"Sackler Faculty of Medicine Tel Aviv University Tel Aviv Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ludmyla","family":"Kachko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sackler Faculty of Medicine Tel Aviv University Tel Aviv Israel"},{"name":"Anesthesiology Department Pain Treatment Service Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel Petach Tikva Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tal","family":"Eidlitz\u2010Markus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pediatric Headache Clinic Day Hospitalization Department Schneider Children\u2019s Medical Center of Israel Petach Tikva Israel"},{"name":"Sackler Faculty of Medicine Tel Aviv University Tel Aviv Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pain.2013.11.013"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0333102417738202"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0333102416687280"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/088307380101600821"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0887-8994(01)00395-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.wneu.2018.10.074"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijporl.2003.09.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/head.12441"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1744806920901890"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/head.12384"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_9_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"396","DOI":"10.1212\/CON.0000000000000451","article-title":"Trigeminal neuralgia","volume":"23","author":"Cruccu G","year":"2017","journal-title":"Continuum"}],"container-title":["Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/head.14023","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1111\/head.14023","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/headachejournal.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/head.14023","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,2]],"date-time":"2025-11-02T10:33:32Z","timestamp":1762079612000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/headachejournal.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/head.14023"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,24]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/head.14023"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/head.14023","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0017-8748","1526-4610"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0017-8748","type":"print"},{"value":"1526-4610","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,24]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2020-05-20","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2020-08-13","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2020-11-24","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
