Re-animation and rehabilitation of the paralyzed face in head and neck cancer patients

Re-animation and rehabilitation of the paralyzed face in head and neck cancer patients CLINICAL ANATOMY Divi, V., Deschler, D. G. 2012; 25 (1): 99-107Abstract
Facial nerve paralysis can occasionally result from the treatment of head and neck cancer. The treatment of paralysis is patient specific, and requires an assessment of the remaining nerve segments, musculature, functional deficits, anticipated recovery, and patient factors. When feasible, reinnervation of the remaining musculature can provide the most natural outcome. However, the complex and topographic nature of facial innervation often prevents complete and meaningful movement. In these instances, a wide variety of procedures can be used to combat the functional and cosmetic sequella of facial paralysis.
