Abstract/OtherAbstract:
This discussion of facial paralysis as it relates to otology and neuro-otology is a mere primer of all that is known about this complex topic. It is hoped that this discussion has provided the reader with a foundation for evaluating and initiating management for the more common facial nerve disorders. It is further hoped that this less-than-exhaustive discussion will stimulate the reader to continue to study the anatomy and pathology of the facial nerve.
