Trigeminal neuralgia - Vascular anomaly affecting the trigeminal nerve Factor
Last reviewed for CCPS 10 March 1995.
Preliminary questions [8153]
8602 there is some evidence that a vascular anomaly affecting the trigeminal nerve may be a factor in the development of the condition under consideration.
8176 the veteran has a vascular anomaly affecting the trigeminal nerve.
8178 the trigeminal nerve was affected by the vascular anomaly prior to the clinical onset of trigeminal neuralgia.
8177 — the vascular anomaly affecting the trigeminal nerve is an illness or injury which is identifiable. [Default true]
8179 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the identified illness or injury, a vascular anomaly affecting the trigeminal nerve, and VEA service for the clinical onset of trigeminal neuralgia.
8180 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the identified illness or injury, a vascular anomaly affecting the trigeminal nerve, and operational service for the clinical onset of trigeminal neuralgia.
or
8181 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the identified illness or injury, a vascular anomaly affecting the trigeminal nerve, and eligible service for the clinical onset of trigeminal neuralgia.
Clinical onset and operational service [8180]
8182 — the identified illness or injury, a vascular anomaly affecting the trigeminal nerve, is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [8181]
8183 — the identified illness or injury, a vascular anomaly affecting the trigeminal nerve, is causally related to eligible service.
