THE TERM Bell's palsy denotes facial paresis occurring suddenly in an otherwise healthy person. It is not due to trauma. It may be due to virus infection, as in the Ramsey-Hunt syndrome. (Patients with the Ramsey-Hunt syndrome are not considered in this report.) It may also be due to neighborhood focal infection, in which case its onset is more gradual,

Bell's palsy is a self-limiting idiopathic rapid onset facial palsy that is non-life-threatening and has a generally favorable prognosis. Facial paralysis can be caused by numerous conditions, all of which should be excluded before a diagnosis of Bell's palsy is reached.

The term "Bell's palsy" is commonly used to indicate the idiopathic type of facial paralysis. Of late, there seems to be general agreement that this disorder is the result of vasospasm of the nutrient vessels of the nerve with the usual effect of anoxia, that is, increased permeability of the vessel wall with consequent accumulation of interstitial ...

Importance The incidence and severity of Bell's palsy are increased in pregnancy, with most cases arising in the third trimester or postpartum period. It has been indicated that pregnancy-related Bell's palsy has worse long-term outcomes, such as complete facial paralysis, compared with nonpregnant women and males.

In cases of acute unilateral facial weakness, a careful and systematic evaluation is necessary to identify the cause. Idiopathic facial paralysis (Bell's palsy) is a diagnosis of exclusion. It is also the most common cause of unilateral facial weakness seen by primary care physicians.

Bell's palsy seems to occur during pregnancy and the puerperium more frequently than expected by chance. In particular there seems to be a distinct group of young primigravidae in whom Bell's palsy appears during the week preceding delivery, and who have a normal glucose tolerance test.

We report a woman with four episodes of Bell's palsy. Usual symptoms of idiopathic unilateral facial paralysis include subacute facial palsy, hyperacusis on the affected side, postauricular pain on the affected side, altered sensation of taste, and partial trigeminal distribution hypesthesias.

On the Pathogenesls of Bell's Palsy
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1983The data obtained from the anatomical study of the Fallopian canal, the intraoperative evoked electromyography and the histopathological evaluation of specimens from the greater petrosal nerve support the entrapment neuropathy concept in Bell's palsy.

Each year in the UK, around 1 in 5,000 people develop Bell's palsy – a unilateral lower motor neurone facial weakness of rapid onset that can be physically and psychologically disabling.1 While around 71% of patients recover normal function of the facial muscles without treatment, 13% are left with slight weakness and 16% with moderate to severe ...
