Qin, Daqiang; Ouyang, Zhiyuan & Luo, Wei
Abstract
Bell′s palsy is a peripheral facial palsy of sudden onset. The etiology of Bell′s palsy is unknown and hereditary components may play a role in familial recurrent Bell′s palsy. We report three families in which eight patients had a total of 12 episodes of typical Bell′s palsy. The pathophysiology of familial recurrent Bell′s palsy is discussed.
