Trigeminal neuralgia - Tumour affecting the trigeminal nerve Factor
Last reviewed for CCPS 10 March 1995.
Preliminary questions [8152]
8601 [1] there is some evidence that a tumour affecting the trigeminal nerve may be a factor in the development of the condition under consideration.
8168 [1] the veteran has suffered from a tumour affecting the trigeminal nerve at some time.
8169 — tumour means an abnormal growth, and includes benign and malignant lesions. [Default true]
8170 [2] the veteran suffered from the identified illness or injury, a tumour affecting the trigeminal nerve, prior to the clinical onset of trigeminal neuralgia. [3]
8171 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the identified illness or injury, a tumour affecting the trigeminal nerve, and VEA service for the clinical onset of trigeminal neuralgia.
8172 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the identified illness or injury, a tumour affecting the trigeminal nerve, and operational service for the clinical onset of trigeminal neuralgia.
or
8173 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the identified illness or injury, a tumour affecting the trigeminal nerve, and eligible service for the clinical onset of trigeminal neuralgia.
Clinical onset and operational service [8172]
8174 — the identified illness or injury, a tumour affecting the trigeminal nerve, is causally related to operational service. [4] [5]
Clinical onset and eligible service [8173]
8175 — the identified illness or injury, a tumour affecting the trigeminal nerve, is causally related to eligible service. [6] [5]
