Surgical treatment of facial paralysis by using static ancillary procedures.
Seung Jae Choi, Seung Ha Park
Abstract
There is no method of single surgical treatment for facial paralysis, because of its variable condition and variable patient's demand. We usually have been performed the free vascularized gracilis muscle transfer to achieve facial reanimation in cases of the complete facial paralysis. However. most of the patients who visit outpatient room are incomplete facial paralysis. In these cases, we performed the several auxiliary operations for the correction of a drooping eyebrow, paralyzed eyelids, paralysis of the lower lip, and for similar paralytic deformities. To correct a drooping eyebrow, we performed simple eyebrow lifting and upper blepharoplasty. Gold plate implantations and Kuhnt-Szymanowski's method were performed for the lagophthalmos and ectropions individually. To correct a paralyzed lower lip, tensor fascia lata graft was performed with the face lifting. The authors also discuss their operative methods and results of various surgical methods for treating facial paralysis.
