The aim of the registry is a multicenter, prospective long-term data collection of patients suspected neurovascular conflict and referred for possible microvascular decompression (Jannetta procedure). The registry relies exclusively on routinely collected clinical data, which are gathered in a standardized and privacy-compliant manner as part of everyday clinical practice. By systematically compiling this information across multiple centers, valuable insights into the effectiveness, potential side effects, and long-term outcomes of this surgical treatment can be gained. The registry will serve as a foundation for future scientific analyses and is intended to help answer relevant research questions regarding the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia based on solid evidence.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Pain relief after surgical treatment | Efficacy of microvascular decompression surgery, defined by the change in pain as assessed by the patient using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) from 0 to 100 mm, with higher scores representing worse outcomes. | From enrolment to last follow-up 5 yrs after surgery |
| Face specific pain relief after surgical treatment | Efficacy of microvascular decompression surgery, defined by the change in facial pain and pain interference as assessed by the patient using the Brief Pain Inventory-Facial (BPI-Facial), with numerical scores ranging from 0 to 10, where higher scores represent worse outcomes. | From enrolment to last follow-up 5 yrs after surgery |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Surgical complications | any complications directly attributable to the surgical intervention | three months after index surgery |
| Need for additional treatment | rate of patients having to undergo additional surgery / intervention / medication after microvascular decompression |

| Patient satisfaction | Perceived benefit of surgery as determined by Patient global impression of change (PGIC) scores. The PGIC is a 7-point, patient-reported scale that captures an individual's overall perception of change in their condition. It ranges from "very much improved" to "very much worse," enabling patients to rate whether they feel their health has improved, remained the same, or declined. | 5yrs after index surgery |
| Effect of surgical treatment on quality of life | Efficacy of microvascular decompression surgery as defined by change of Quality of Life Questionaire as measured by EQ-5D-5L. The EQ-5D-5L is a standardized, patient-reported outcome measure that assesses health-related quality of life across five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has five levels of severity, ranging from "no problems" to "extreme problems. | 5 years after index surgery |
