BACKGROUND
Facial synkinesis is a distressing consequence of incomplete recovery from facial paralysis. The author presents selective orbicularis neuromyectomy as an alternative surgical treatment for periocular synkinesis.
METHODS
Eleven patients (eight women and three men; mean age: 67 years;

OBJECTIVE
Preserving facial nerve function is a primary goal and a key decision factor in the comprehensive management of vestibular schwannoma and other cerebellopontine angle (CPA) tumors.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the use of the pattern of facial paralysis recovery in the early postoperative months

METHODS
Hypoglossal-facial nerve (HN-FN) neurorrhaphy is a method commonly used to treat facial palsy when the proximal stump of the injured FN is unavailable. Since the classic HN-FN neurorrhaphy method that needs to section the injured FN is not suitable for incomplete facial palsy, we

OBJECTIVE
Facial synkinesis and hyperkinesis commonly impair the outcome of facial nerve palsy. Botulinum toxin type A has shown positive results in the treatment of these symptoms. Our experience is reported in this article.
METHODS
Prospective study.
METHODS
Forty-one patients affected by facial

BACKGROUND
Patients with longstanding facial paralysis often exhibit synkinesis. Few reports describe the prevalence and factors related to the development of synkinesis after facial paralysis. Botulinum toxin type A injection is an important adjunct treatment for facial paralysis-induced asymmetry

Experiences with patients with facial paralysis over the last 25 years and recent efforts to develop objective measures of paresis and synkinesis led us to three hypotheses: (a) dysfunction in certain regions of the face is more disturbing than that in others, (b) there are major psychosocial
