Between February, 1974, and mid-December, 1975, 43 patients with paralytic facial palsy were operated upon with lid magnets, according to a method first devised by Mühlbauer and others (1973). When 37 patients were re-examined 3 months to 2 years post-operatively, 27 had both magnets in situ functioning well. In nine patients one or both magnets had been removed because of return of 7th nerve function. Including our information about those patients not available for re-examination, the method has definitely failed in only four. Cosmetically and functionally the results are subjectively as well as objectively encouraging and appear superior to a lateral tarsorrhaphy.
1974年2月至1975年12月中旬，按照Mühlbauer等人（1973年）首次设计的方法，对43例麻痹性面瘫患者进行了眼睑磁铁植入手术。术后3个月至2年对37例患者进行复查时，发现有27例患者的磁铁均在原位且功能良好。9例患者因第7神经功能恢复而取出了一个或两个磁铁。综合我们掌握的那些无法进行复查的患者的情况，该方法仅在4例患者中明确失败。从美观和功能方面来看，主观及客观结果均令人鼓舞，且似乎优于外侧睑缘缝合术。
