Benign primary tumours of the facial nerve are uncommon. A slowly progressive facial palsy should be considered the result of a nerve tumour until proven otherwise. Improvements in diagnostic imaging techniques of the temporal bone have increased the possibility of a correct pre-operative diagnosis but facial nerve tumours remain a frequently ignored or misdiagnosed entity as a consequence of their subtle and protean clinical manifestations. A series of 12 cases of primary facial nerve tumours is presented. The clinical features, diagnostic modalities and treatment are discussed in relation to a review of the literature.
面神经原发性良性肿瘤并不常见。在未得到其他证实之前,应将缓慢进展的面神经麻痹视为神经肿瘤的结果。颞骨诊断成像技术的改进增加了术前正确诊断的可能性,但由于面神经肿瘤临床表现隐匿且多变,它们仍然是常被忽视或误诊的疾病。本文报告了12例原发性面神经肿瘤病例。结合文献复习,对其临床特征、诊断方法及治疗进行了讨论。
