Partial hypoglossal-facial neurorrhaphy: a surgical technique

This is a video demonstration of hemihypoglossal-facial neurorrhaphy. Any irreversible facial palsy more than House-Brackmann grade II is aesthetically problematic. Also, the functional and psychological impact associated with a higher grade of facial palsy is even worse. In this video, the procedur...

description This is a video demonstration of hemihypoglossal-facial neurorrhaphy. Any irreversible facial palsy more than House-Brackmann grade II is aesthetically problematic. Also, the functional and psychological impact associated with a higher grade of facial palsy is even worse. In this video, the procedure is demonstrated in a female patient with irreversible grade VI facial palsy and corneal opacity due to exposure keratitis 1 year following surgical excision of cerebellopontine angle (CPA) schwannoma. Postoperative outcomes are shown in another patient who underwent a similar procedure for establishing outcomes. The nasolabial fold and eye closure symmetry can be achieved with minimal or no hypoglossal morbidity. The video can be found here: https://stream.cadmore.media/r10.3171/2022.10.FOCVID2290
