Toxins as Cause of Trigeminal Neuralgia

by Gregory-Ros, Jun 26, 1998 12:00AM

  I have heard that one potential cause of TN is an exposure to toxins.  Any further information on what toxins.  In my employment, as a workers' compensation loss control specialist, I have been in probably as many different toxic environments as anyone.
====================================================================================
I did a medline search over the past 10 years and found 10 papers that deal with TN and etiology. I did not find a single paper listing toxic exposure. Good luck in your search
