The Vital Role of Clinical Examination in Unmasking Bell's Palsy: Beyond Pattern Recognition.
Curēus 2024 March
While multiple sclerosis (MS) commonly manifests with optic nerve involvement, it can also masquerade as diverse cranial nerve (CN) palsies. We present the case of a young male initially diagnosed with Bell's palsy based on unilateral facial nerve paralysis. Despite the presence of typical clinical features, the patient's evaluation took an unexpected turn. Subsequent brain MRI revealed demyelinating lesions, ultimately confirming the diagnosis of MS. This case underscores the importance of maintaining vigilance in diagnosing atypical presentations of MS, illustrating how meticulous evaluation and neuroimaging play pivotal roles in uncovering underlying pathologies when conventional diagnoses such as Bell's palsy raise uncertainties.
