SURGICAL TREATMENT OF PERIPHERAL FACIAL PARALYSIS
HAN Weiju
摘要:The facial nerve passes through the temporal bone and is the longest nerve that travels in a bony canal with a complex course and high susceptibility to injury.When facial nerve becomes swollen from insults such as trauma,inflammation,tumor or iatrogenic injury,its distal portion can suffer ischemia and degeneration from increased pressure as a result of lack of expansion room in a rigid bony canal,potentially leading to severe nerve damage and even necrosis and fibrosis [1].Facial paralysis can produce significant impact on the patient both psychologically and in daily life,and should be treated in a timely manner.
