it is necessary to know previous concepts of the anatomy of the structures involved&#46; The SPG has parasympathetic postganglionic neuron bodies&#46; However&#44; sympathetic and somatic sensory fibres from the maxillary branch of the trigeminal nerve pass through the ganglion&#44; without terminating or synapsing in it&#44; which is why it is proposed as an option for treatment in refractory TN&#46; Parasympathetic fibres originate in the superior salivatory nucleus&#44; exiting via the facial nerve&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> The facial nerve is considered mixed because it has both motor axons &#40;to control the musculature of facial expression&#41; and sensory axons&#44; which conduct sensory impulses from the external auditory canal via the sensory root to special or taste axons originating from the anterior two thirds of the tongue and parasympathetic efferent fibres innervate postganglionic neurons in the sphenopalatine and submandibular ganglia for secretomotor innervation of the lacrimal and salivary glands&#44; with the exception of the parotid gland&#46; Relating all these structures&#44; a possible explanation for the finding in the present case is that the motor part of the facial nerve was damaged at some point along its course by the needle used to apply the RFP&#44;

a finding not described in the side effects in the scientific literature&#46; Since the symptoms were not long-lasting and subsided spontaneously&#44; it is reasonable to assume that the possible damage to the facial nerve was mild&#44; as otherwise the signs would have persisted for a longer period of time&#46; As the patient subsequently presented symptoms of dry eyes in both eyes&#44; although this could be partly due to the technique used&#44; we think it was more likely to be due to the TN than to a side effect of the procedure&#44; as these symptoms were previously recorded in the history&#44; although they were milder&#46; The tearing could be due either to paralysis due to lack of blinking or to dry eyes&#44; but it was not a cause for concern as it gradually subsided as the treatment with ocular lubrication was applied&#46; Still&#44; despite the potential complications that may arise from this procedure&#44; the SPG technique has a simple percutaneous approach and is safe&#44; effective and repeatable as well as providing sustained pain relief in patients with TN or atypical facial pain who have failed previous medical interventions&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> and X-ray or CT-guided RF can be performed&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9&#44;10</span></a> Exclusion criteria for its performance would include severe coagulation disorders&#44;

RF ablation and neurostimulation&#46; At the ophthalmological level&#44; it is important to know the techniques that cover the approach to this ganglion to treat pathologies at the neuraxial level and its anatomical relationships due to the possible complications that could arise from these techniques&#46;
