Facial Paralysis Reconstruction
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2016Facial nerve paralysis is a devastating condition arising from several causes with severe functional and psychological consequences. Given the complexity of the disease process, management involves a multispecialty, team-oriented approach. This article provides a systematic approach in addressing each specific sequela of this complex problem.

In any instance of facial paralysis in a child, an effort should be made to determine immediately whether it is caused by a specific, treatable entity. Of 61 cases of facial paralysis in children seen in a Facial Paralysis Clinic, 38% were not Bell's palsy. Eight of the 61 children had disease amenable to specific therapy available today.

This article discusses peripheral facial paralysis of nontraumatic origin. The term idiopathic facial paralysis is used generically, in place of the often ambiguous term, Bell's palsy, to indicate all types of peripheral facial palsy/paralysis for which no cause is apparent.

Extratemporal Facial Paralysis
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2013This report summarizes our experience in the management of extratemporal facial paralysis with a variety of reconstructive techniques and explores those parameters which are considered to be useful in achieving better outcomes.In all, 56 patients with extratemporal facial paralysis were studied.

AbstractDetailed knowledge of embryology, anatomy, and function of the facial nerve is essential in treating the devestating functional, aesthetic, and psychological sequelae of facial paralysis. Two basic factors influence the method of repair and the subsequent outcome of the effort to combat facial paralysis.

The Evaluation Of Facial Paralysis
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1997The clinician faces a major challenge in the evaluation of acute facial nerve paralysis. Not only must he or she differentiate the large proportion of patients with idiopathic palsy who will resolve spontaneously from that critical small group that will not, but must also diagnose correctly the other rather unusual to rare conditions that cause facial ...

This discussion of facial paralysis as it relates to otology and neuro-otology is a mere primer of all that is known about this complex topic. It is hoped that this discussion has provided the reader with a foundation for evaluating and initiating management for the more common facial nerve disorders.

Summary Epiphora is a common and most troublesome feature of permanent facial paralysis. A review of the mechanism of normal lacrimal drainage indicates that several factors are concerned in causing this epiphora. Surgery should be directed towards supporting the cheek, relieving the ectropion, and modifying the lower punctum. The various methods of
