Still, sometimes the prosthetic material is unavailable, or there is some recurrence of pain during the follow-up. In this case series, we report the outcome analysis for MVD using the expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) sleeve technique in classic Tn.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"st2\">\n<jats:title>Methods: <\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients with Tn from January 2017 to March 2022. Classic or primary Tn was considered a direct compression by a cerebrovascular structure in the posterior fossa, detected by magnetic resonance imaging or direct surgical visualization. Pre- and postoperative Barrow Neurological Institute Pain Intensity Scale (BNI-SI) and Barrow Neurological Institute Hypoesthesia Scale (BNI-HS) were used for the clinical results assessment of the ePTFE sleeve circumferential technique.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"st3\">\n<jats:title>Results: <\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>There were nine patients approached with the 3\/4 circumferential ePTFE sleeve technique with BNISI IV (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>: 11, 58%) and BNI-SI V (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>: 8, 42%). In all patients, there was a clinical improvement after the surgical treatment (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001). All patients obtained BNI-SI \u2264 IIIa in an average follow-up of 11.89 (\u00b114.137), with a slight improvement in BNI-HS (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>: 0.157). In our revision, this technique has not previously been described for Tn.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"st4\">\n<jats:title>Conclusion: <\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The circumferential ePTFE sleeve technique is a good option for MVD in Tn. For classic Tn, MVD could remain the first option, and this technique could be applied for multi-vessel
