本文报告了中国六城市居民三叉神经痛流行病学调查结果。调查63195人,发现原发性三叉神经痛患者33人,患病率为52.2/10万(美国1960年人口调整率62.3/10万)发病率为4.3/10万人口(美国1960年人口调整率7.6/10万人口)未见死亡者。本文还对该病的地区分布、起病年龄、临床特征,治疗与预后等诸因素,进行了讨论。提出三叉神经上颌支合并下颌支损害时,要避免误诊为牙科疾病。

A door-to-door survey was carried out in six Chinese cities, among a sample population of 63,195 individuals during 1983. There were 33 primary trigeminal neuralgia in the total population, The prevalnce ratio of tic doulooreux was 52. 2 per 100. 000 per year, and age-adjusted (to U.S. 1960 population) rate of prevalence and incidence were 62.3 per 100,000 and 7.6 per 100,000 per year respectively. There was no death due to this illness in 1983.The epidemiologic and clinical features of trigeminal neuralgia are discussed. The geographic distribution, age of onset, treatment and outcome of tic douloureux are analysed. The result suggests that tic douloureux from ma x illlary and mandibular should avoid misdiagnosis as odontopathy.
