Bell’s palsy is the common name for the inflammation of the cranial nerve VII. The peculiar geniculate ganglion inflammation is idiopathic and causes hemifacial paralysis. Patients who suffer from this paralysis may have their symptoms dissipate between 3 weeks and 3 months. For certain patients whose facial paralysis persist, botulinum toxin type- A might be an efficient treatment. Depending on the severity of the muscular palsy, different treatments can be offered including surgery, steroid, and anti-viral treatment as well as Botox. This review article’s purpose is to dive into the possible correlation of viral pathogens with the activation of the facial nerve inflammation, and how patients with Bell’s palsy can benefit from Botox type-A as treatment.

Bell felcinin viral patojenitesi ve tedavi olarak botulinum toksin tip A kullanımı

Öz

Bell'in felci, kraniyal sinir VII'nin iltihaplanmasının ortak adıdır. Kendine özgü genikulat ganglion iltihabı idiyopatiktir ve hemifasiyal felce neden olur. Bu felçten muzdarip olan hastaların semptomları 3 hafta ile 3 ay arasında kaybolabilir. Yüz felci devam eden bazı hastalar için botulinum toksin tip A etkili bir tedavi olabilir. Kas felcinin şiddetine göre botoksun yanı sıra ameliyat, steroid ve antiviral tedavi gibi farklı tedaviler sunulabilir. Bu derleme makalesinin amacı, viral patojenlerin fasiyal sinir iltihabının aktivasyonu ile olası ilişkisine ve Bell felçli hastaların tedavi olarak botoks tip-A'dan nasıl yararlanabileceğine dalmaktır.
