Bell's palsy is a lower motor neuron lesion rarely associated with COVID-19 infection or vaccinations. We documented two cases of Bell's palsy in this report, one after contracting COVID-19 infection and the other after administration of AZD1222 Vaxzervria (AstraZeneca) Vaccine. After excluding all possible causes of Bell's palsy in both cases, we determined that COVID-19 infection and the AZD1222 Vaxzervria (AstraZeneca) vaccine were the causes. Thus, we believe COVID-19 and the AZD1222 Vaxzervria (AstraZeneca) vaccine should be considered as causes of Bell's palsy.
贝尔麻痹是一种下运动神经元病变,很少与新冠病毒感染或疫苗接种相关。在本报告中,我们记录了两例贝尔麻痹病例,一例在感染新冠病毒后出现,另一例在接种阿斯利康公司的AZD1222 Vaxzervria疫苗后出现。在排除了这两例病例中贝尔麻痹的所有可能病因后,我们确定新冠病毒感染和AZD1222 Vaxzervria(阿斯利康)疫苗是病因。因此,我们认为新冠病毒和AZD1222 Vaxzervria(阿斯利康)疫苗应被视为贝尔麻痹的病因。
