A case of operation for presumed otosclerosis. Discovery of a neurinoma between the branches of the stapes probably originating from the geniculate. Facial paralysis was not present either before or after the operation which, in fact, was only partial (a more extensive operation was refused later on). A curious F.P. "to cold", 30 years beforehand, recovered without sequelae.

Introduction: Bilateral facial nerve palsy (FNP) is a rare condition that is idiopathic in only 20%. FNP is the most common cranial neuropathy in West Nile neuroinvasive disease (WNND) but is usually unilateral and only a few cases of bilateral FNP have been reported.
Case: We present a case of a 65-year-old woman with confirmed WNND and simultaneous bilateral FNP.

Accelerated rehabilitation following facial nerve injury presents unique clinical challenges. This study evaluates the therapeutic effects of concentrated growth factor (CGF) on facial nerve recovery in a rabbit model and on RSC96 Schwann cells. Characterization of the CGF membrane (CGFM) revealed a three-dimensional fibrin network with embedded platelets, and representative growth factors, including TGF-β1, PDGF-BB, IGF-1, bFGF, and VEGF, were detected.

Jansen metaphyseal chondrodysplasia (JMC) is an ultra-rare disorder caused by constitutive activation of parathyroid hormone type 1 receptor (PTH1R). We sought to characterize the craniofacial phenotype of patients with the disease. Six patients with genetically confirmed JMC underwent comprehensive craniofacial phenotyping revealing a distinct facial appearance that prompted a cephalometric analysis demonstrating a pattern of mandibular retrognathia.
