    Abstract:

    In two cases of unilateral ficial paralysis, the advanced atrophy of the muscles forced us to try a new technique for dynamin reanimation. To our knowledge, this has not yet been reported in the literaturel. The technique combines a free nerve graft across the face with a free muscle graft or a muscle flap. The result in both our cases was good.

    Skeletal Muscle Relaxants: Therapeutic Uses

    Skeletal muscle relaxants are used to relax muscle tone and alleviate painful muscle contractions. However, the choice of skeletal muscle relaxants depends on the duration of the surgical procedure in order to minimize potential side effects. Skeletal muscle relaxants like neuromuscular blocking agents [NMBAs] are commonly employed as adjuvants alongside general anesthetics in clinical settings. NMBAs are also used to maintain controlled ventilation during surgery of the larynx or pharynx as...
