Hemihypoglossal-facial nerve anastomosis for facial nerve palsy

Neurologia i Neurochirurgia Polska, 2011
Commonly used classic hypoglossal (CN XII) to facial nerve (CN VII) anastomosis has the disadvantage of tongue hemiatrophy. Thus, various attempts have been made to modify this method to reduce the tongue damage. The aim of this report was to present the results of hemihypoglossal-facial nerve anastomosis (HHFA) technique in relation to facial muscles ...

Compression of the Facial Nerve

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1972
Measurements of the sectional area of the human facial canal revealed that changes in distribution of small blood vessels and capillaries and the amount of loose connective tissue are responsible for compression of the facial nerve. A newly designed nerve compressor was applied to the facial nerve trunk of the rabbit which allowed constant compression ...

Surgery of the Facial Nerve

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1965
SURGICAL lesions of the facial nerve may arise in immediate conjunction with an operation, or they may be delayed in onset. They may be due to direct injury of the nerve, or they may arise from vascular disorders within the facial canal. I prefer to regard any facial palsy which follows an operation as an immediate one unless there is undisputed proof

Facial nerve decompression

Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head & Neck Surgery, 2018
Purpose of reviewFacial nerve paralysis is a debilitating condition. Bell's palsy and temporal bone trauma are common causes of acute facial palsy, with recurrent idiopathic paralysis and Melkersson–Rosenthal syndrome accounting for a smaller subset of cases. Properly selected patients may benefit from facial nerve decompression.

Facial Nerve Homografts

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1972
Four facial nerve homografts of 2 cm length and four of 1 cm length were performed in cats. Spontaneous movements occurred in all cats and were present within eight weeks. At operation at 16 weeks and 60 weeks, good movements were obtained on direct stimulation of the facial nerve.

Amyloid of the facial nerve

The Laryngoscope, 1992
AbstractAlthough facial nerve paralysis has been reported in association with amyloidosis, histologic confirmation of facial nerve involvement with amyloid has not been previously demonstrated. A case of localized primary amyloidosis of the facial nerve is presented, and a new magnetic resonance technique for imaging the facial nerve is described.

Facial Nerve Grafting

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1991
The techniques of facial nerve grafting have undergone several adjustments and refinements within the last 20 years. Those techniques that have stood the test of time are discussed, and new approaches to facial nerve grafting in the temporal bone are explored.

Neurinoma of the facial nerve

min - Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery, 1992
A case of facial neurinoma is reported. There was a progredient facial palsy persisting for one year. While X-ray examination as well as CT and MR did not show a pathological finding, classical topodiagnosis resulted in mastoidectomy, during which a neurinoma of 0.5 x 0.8 cm could be removed.
