title: [Treatment of neuralgiform maxillofacial pain with hydantoin (Phenhydan)].
abstract: Within 4 years a total of 49 patients have been treated for neuralgiform symptoms. 19 patients were symptom-free after 4 to 5 days of monotherapy. Including additional carbamacepine in the treatment of the remaining 30 patients produced successful results in 12 cases. Eight out of the remaining 18 patients showed satisfactory results after psychoactive drugs had been added. It was only in 10 cases that the symptoms could not be eliminated.
