Glomus jugulare tumours: certain clinical and radiological aspects observed following Gamma Knife radiosurgery.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Specific microanatomical characteristics of the trigeminal nerve root (TNR) blood supply and close neurovascular relationships with surrounding vessels as well as their possible clinical significance were the main reasons for this study. METHOD:The vasculature of 25 adult and four fetal TNRs were microdisse...
