Smile Asymmetry and Eyelid Closure Following Temporalis Muscle Transfer for Facial Reanimation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis of 53 studies and 1354 patients evaluates the outcomes of temporalis muscle transfer in facial nerve paralysis. Our results show that temporalis muscle transfer can restore smile asymmetry, oral commissure movement, and eyelid closure—findings that are translated to clinician‐rated assessments.
