Abstract
AbstractThis evaluation of recent experience of hypoglossal-facial nerve anastomosis in ten patients who had undergone acoustic neuroma resection, indicates that this procedure may have a role to play in the treatment of this disfiguring condition. Facial symmetry at rest is satisfactory in the majority of patients, who suffered little long term deficit from the loss of their hypoglossal nerve. This procedure is ideally suited to otolaryngological practice.
