Abstract

Conventional hypoglossal-facial anastomosis and the interposition jump graft variation are the most popular techniques for facial nerve reconstruction resulting from proximal facial nerve injury. We present a modification of this technique, the hemi-hypoglossal facial intratemporal side to side anastomosis, which overcomes many of the failings of previous techniques. The method involves mobilization of the intratemporal facial nerve, which is anastomosed to a partially incised hypoglossal nerve. It is especially indicated in patients with multiple cranial nerve palsies.

Key words:
Hypoglossal-facial anastomosis
Facial paralysis
Intratemporal facial nerve
Resumen

La anastomosis hipoglosofacial directa y la anastomosis con interposición de nervio auricular mayor son las técnicas de reconstrucción facial más utilizadas cuando el extremo proximal del nervio facial no es accesible. Presentamos una modificación de la técnica, la anastomosis hipoglosofacial intratemporal hemiterminoterminal, que soluciona muchos inconvenientes de las técnicas previas. La porción intratemporal del nervio facial se libera y anastomosa al nervio hipogloso, seccionado parcialmente. La técnica está especialmente indicada en pacientes con múltiples déficit de pares craneales.

Palabras clave:
