Background: Our brain is the most complex organ in our body which conducts various complex functions and this level of complexity is operated by different structures of the brain. The complexity of relaying information between brain and different parts of the body is conducted by 12 pairs of cranial nerves. Out of 12 pairs of cranial nerves, the most complex and largest nerve is know as trigeminal nerve which is responsible for sensation of face and motor functions such as biting and chewing. Sometimes due to offendation of this nerve typically by Superior Cerebellar Artery leads to most excruciating painful disorder humanity have ever witnessed.
Materials and Methods: A systemic self-study was planned to determine and review with proper enlightenment on the existing facts to find the root sources of trigeminal neuralgia.
Discussion: This article discussed and focused on the exact cause of trigeminal neuralgia it’s association with Superior Cerebellar Artery along with descriptive analysis on the available treatments for this disorder.
Conclusions: We concluded with the fact that based on our thorough review and analysis Superior Cerebellar Artery is the main artery which typically causes world’s most excruciating painful Suicide Disease.
