AB  - The aim of this article is to review the clinical, pathophysiological, and 
      therapeutic aspects of traumatically induced trigeminal nerve pain. We introduce 
      a new and, in our view, more accurate terminology: peripheral painful traumatic 
      trigeminal neuropathy (PPTTN) to define this patient group. The proposed 
      pathophysiology of PPTTN is largely based on studies in spinal nerve injury 
      models. However, trigeminal nerve injury studies have shown some subtle 
      differences in response to physical and inflammatory insults, and these are 
      discussed. The treatment of painful neuropathies is difficult and carries a poor 
      prognosis. Based on the available literature on efficacy and side effects, we 
      propose a treatment algorithm for traumatic trigeminal neuropathies.
