Facial Nerve Laceration and its Repair.
Trauma Monthly 2016 May
INTRODUCTION: Facial paralysis is a devastating condition with profound functional, aesthetic and psychosocial consequences. Tumors within or outside the skull, Bell's palsy and trauma are the most common causes of facial paralysis in adults.
CASE PRESENTATION: Our patient was a 35-year-old man with deep laceration wounds. The patient was taken to the operating room and the nerves were repaired. We observed gradual improvement of muscle performance except branches of the frontal nerve.
CONCLUSIONS: Complete rupture of the facial nerve is challenging and the treatment is surgery, which requires careful planning.
