Abstract:
A 39-year-old female Chinese non-smoker was diagnosed with epidermal growth factor receptor mutation-positive lung adenocarcinoma with cerebral metastases and commenced erlotinib. After 5 weeks, she presented with a 3-day history of severe bilateral facial weakness (House-Brackmann grade V/VI) and hypogeusia consistent with bilateral facial nerve palsies. MRI demonstrated new, symmetrical contrast-enhancing foci at the expected location of the facial nerves, consistent with leptomeningeal progression. Erlotinib was ceased and osimertinib was commenced. Facial nerve motor and sensory function b

Abstract:
TFacial nerve paralysis is one of the most feared complications of otologic surgery; the surgeon must always be prepared to recognize and solve such lesions if they occur. The authors present 2 clinical cases of intratemporal lesions of the facial nerve; in one of these we performed early neurografting of the facial nerve, in the second one we performed delayed decompression of the nerve. Facial nerve paralysis with early onset after otologic surgery needs timely exploration (via ENoG) and repair – this is always an emergency, the earlier the exploration the better the outcome; there are a var

Abstract:
Combined measurements of reflexive lacrimation, stapedial reflex, and electrically induced taste give an indication of the site and extent of infratemporal lesions of the facial nerve. Using refined test batteries, we established the presence of intratemporal lesions in Bell's palsy in 80 patients with facial paralysis. In the acute stage of Bell's palsy, suprastapedial lesions predominated and the occurrence of a suprageniculate lesion was not rare. In the subacute stage, the lesions proximal to the stapedial nerve tended to subside and infrastapedial lesions increased. In 60% of 53 patients

Abstract:
Introduction: Facial nerve palsy results in the loss of facial expression and is most commonly caused by a benign self-limiting inflammatory condition, known as Bell’s palsy. However, there are other conditions which may result in injury of the seventh cranial nerve and the radiologist should be familiar with their imaging appearances. Materials and Methods: The relevant anatomy of the facial nerve and pathology which may affect the intratemporal portion of the nerve is described. The role of imaging and choice of imaging modality is also reviewed. Results: High-resolution computer tomography

According to the WHO, facial nerve lesions ranks second in frequency among peripheral nervous system pathologies and first among cranial nerve lesions (incidence varies from 13 to 24 patients per 100,000 population), equally among men and women. Any damage to the temporal bone affecting the canal of the facial nerve can cause facial paralysis.

Smooth symmetric facial muscle function is important for social interactions. When lesions of the facial nerve occur, achieving complete restoration of balanced and spontaneous facial function can be challenging. In this video, the authors demonstrate the surgical details and long-term follow-up of a masseter-to-facial nerve transfer in a 3-year-old girl who had insidious onset of a left facial palsy due to a facial nerve schwannoma. After resection, she underwent distal nerve repair with a masseter-to-zygomatic branch transfer. She demonstrated decreased lagophthalmos and good activation and

It results from the reactivation of the Varicella Zoster virus in the geniculate ganglion and may extend to other cranial pairs, causing inflammation, edema and nerve dysfunction (1,3).
