Experimental Facial Nerve Paralysis
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1972Facial nerve paralysis was produced by inoculating rabbits with herpes simplex virus. Inoculations were made through the stylomastoid foramen into the facial nerve canal, the subarachnoid space, and the common carotid artery. Subarachnoid and common carotid artery inoculation caused encephalomeningitis, but facial nerve paralysis failed to develop ...

Postgraduate Medicine, 1981
Most patients with facial nerve paralysis have idiopathic, or Bell's palsy. Nevertheless, other more serious causes should be carefully excluded before Bell's palsy is diagnosed. Several tests can help the physician determine the site of the lesion and the physiologic extent of involvement of the facial nerve. The type of treatment depends on the cause

Facial nerve paralysis may be due to different pathologies. It is important to diagnose the disease early and start the treatment as soon as possible. Topographic tests help localize the site of the lesion. Prognostic tests predict the prognosis. Staging of the injury and the degree of the lesion is important.
