Contemporary techniques for nerve transfer in facial reanimation

چکیده
Nerve transfer procedures have the potential to restore innervation and function native facial musculature. This review summarizes existing literature on nerve injury, regeneration, reinnervation techniques with a focus its various options. Utilizing as early possible, ideally during first 12 months of paralysis, is recommended. Prolonged paralysis frequently not amenable transfer. The masseteric provides excellent smile restoration after coapation midfacial branches minimal morbidity. Several modifications hypoglossal been described limit morbidity in speech swallowing. cross nerve, while appealing able achieve true spontaneous smile, has limitations terms axonal load, time reinnervation, unpredictable outcomes, utility older patients, who less regenerative potential. Finally, there are exciting new developments field, combining reanimation harness advantages donor nerves, research peripheral regeneration.

Facial Nerve Reanimation With Temporalis Muscle Lengthened
s: Management of facial paralysis varies according to the cause, the extent and type of paralysis (total vs partial, unilateral vs bilateral) as well as the duration of paralysis. Facial nerve reconstruction including restitution of the facial symmetry and facial expression is a great surgical challenge. Considering the often disappointing results achieved with the currently available technique...

Permanent facial paralysis is a catastrophic event for involved patients. In long lasting paralysis with severe facial muscles atrophy, masseter muscle transfer is a very good choice. But its greatest problem is postoperative elongation of flap and gradual diminishing of early results and loss of symmetry. This article advocate a new modification for resolving this problem with concomitant el...

OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to determine the various anatomical and surgical relationships between the facial and hypoglossal nerves to define the required length of each for a nerve transfer, either by means of a classical hypoglossal-facial nerve anastomosis or combined with any of its variants developed to reduce tongue morbidities. METHODS Five adult cadaver heads were bilaterall...
