Features of Facial Asymmetry Following Incomplete Recovery from Facial Paralysis
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to investigate peculiar patterns of facial asymmetry following incomplete recovery from facial paralysis that require optimal physical therapy for effective facial rehabilitation, and to decrease the incidence of avoidable facial sequelae. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study involved 41 patients who had facial sequelae following the treatment of various facia...
متن کاملResults of End-To-Side Hypoglossal-Facial Nerve Anastomosis in Facial Paralysis after Skull Base Surgery
Introduction: The primary aim of facial reanimation surgery is to restore tone, symmetry, and movement to the paralyzed face. Hypoglossal-facial end-to-side anastomosis provides satisfactory facial reanimation in the irreversible proximal injury of the facial nerve. This study discussed the facial function results of end-to-side anastomosing of hypoglossal nerve to facial nerve when the i...
متن کاملThreshold of visual perception of facial asymmetry in a facial paralysis model.
OBJECTIVE To determine the degree of facial asymmetry required to trigger conscious perception in the observer in a simulated model of facial paralysis. METHODS A model of unilateral facial paralysis was created using the face of a participant without facial paralysis. Digital morphing software was used to create progressive asymmetry of the brow, oral commissure, and combined brow and oral c...

متن کاملMAST CELLS IN THE TYMPANIC PART OF THE FACIAL NERVE IN CHRONIC OTITIS MEDIA WITHOUT ASSOCIATED FACIAL PARALYSIS
The occurrence of mast cells is studied in the normal facial nerve and in the facial nerve post mortem exam of patients with chronic suppurative otitis media without associated facial paralysis. A small number of mast cells were found in the normal facial nerve. These cells were usually located in close proximity to the endoneural and epineural blood vessels. The number of mast cells was i...
