Facial paralysis is a condition caused by a wide variety of etiologies, including neurologic, congenital, infectious, neoplastic, systemic, and iatrogenic causes. A patient suffering from long-term facial paralysis, with minimal innervation detected through electroneurography, who was successfully reanimated by performing a masseter-to-facial nerve transfer, was presented in this study. Facial paralysis had been caused after resection of an acquired middle ear cholesteatoma more than 5 years before.
面瘫是由多种病因引起的一种病症，包括神经源性、先天性、感染性、肿瘤性、全身性及医源性病因。本研究报告了一名长期面瘫患者，通过神经电图检测发现其神经支配极少，经行咬肌-面神经移植后成功恢复了面部功能。面瘫是在5年多前切除后天性中耳胆脂瘤后引发的。
