Radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RFTA) and percutaneous balloon compression (PBC) are standard surgical treatments. While RFTA is constrained by its lack of branch selectivity and the risks of repeated intracranial punctures, selective extracranial RFTA (SRFTA) has attracted attention due to its high targeting specificity and fewer neural complications. This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of SRFTA and PBC in patients with idiopathic TN involving the V3 branch (TN V3).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This retrospective study included patients with TN V3 who underwent SRFTA or PBC at the First Affiliated Hospital of Jiaxing University between January, 2019 and May 2024. The primary outcome was the proportion of responders at 1\u2009year. Secondary outcomes included the recurrence rate at 1\u2009year, the numeric rating scale (NRS) score at 1\u2009year, and complications such as facial numbness and masticatory muscle weakness.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 236 patients with TN V3 were included. In both the overall cohort and the propensity score\u2010matched (PSM) cohort, there were no statistically significant differences between the PBC and SRFTA groups in the proportion of responders (overall: 72.7% vs. 77.4%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.499; PSM: 74.5% vs. 77.5%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.743), recurrence rate (overall: 19.0% vs. 18.3%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 1.000; PSM: 17.6% vs. 17.6%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 1.000), and incidence of facial numbness (overall: 62.0% vs. 69.6%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.276; PSM: 61.8% vs. 70.6%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.236).
