Facelift and Facial nerve injury: how to deal with? [PDF]
Is largely known that the facial nerve virtually can be injured in every facial lift. Even though its importance, it is difficult to find in the literature articles related to this theme. Complete or incomplete facial paralysis after a facial procedures,

Long-term functional recovery after facial nerve transection and repair in the rat [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The rodent model is commonly used to study facial nerve injury. Because of the exceptional regenerative capacity of the rodent facial nerve, it is essential to consider the timing when studying facial nerve regeneration and functional ...

Progress in facial reinnervation
Facial nerve injury often results in facial paralysis, which seriously affects the patients both aesthetically and functionally. Facial nerve reinnervation methods, including direct anastomosis, nerve graft, nerve transposition, cross-facial nerve graft,

Facial Nerve Axotomy in Mice: A Model to Study Motoneuron Response to Injury [PDF]
The goal of this surgical protocol is to expose the facial nerve, which innervates the facial musculature, at its exit from the stylomastoid foramen and either cut or crush it to induce peripheral nerve injury.

Use of a recombinant pseudorabies virus to analyze motor cortical reorganization after unilateral facial denervation [PDF]
A unilateral facial nerve injury (n7x) was found to influence the transcallosal spread of the attenuated strain of pseudorabies virus (PRV Bartha) from the affected (left) primary motor cortex (MI) to the contralateral MI of rats.

Efficacy of surgical repair for the functional restoration of injured facial nerve
Background Early surgical repair to restore nerve integrity has become the most commonly practiced method for managing facial nerve injury. However, the evidence for the efficacy of surgical repair for restoring the function of facial nerves remains ...

Stab Injury to the Preauricular Region With Laceration of the External Carotid Artery Without Involvement of the Facial Nerve: a Case Report [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Open injuries to the face involving the external carotid artery are uncommon. These injuries are normally associated with laceration of the facial nerve because this nerve is more superficial than the external carotid artery. Hence, external

Bilateral Facial Paralysis Caused by Temporal Bone Fracture: A Case Report [PDF]
Introduction: Although bilateral facial nerve palsy is a rare condition, its etiology is more detectable than the unilateral type. A temporal bone fracture is one cause of bilateral facial nerve palsy, contributing in 3% of the cases.

Results of End-To-Side Hypoglossal-Facial Nerve Anastomosis in Facial Paralysis after Skull Base Surgery [PDF]
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 ...
