Abstract:
A review of the literature and the authors' own long-term experience of developing and implementing into practice an algorithm for clinical and instrumental diagnostics of facial nerve neuropathy in children are presented, allowing, in the early stages of the disease, taking into account the identified values of prognostically significant indicators, to predict the outcome of the disease and develop an individual medical rehabilitation program to achieve maximum restoration of nerve function. The expediency of using Cytoflavin (Inosine+Nicotinamide+Riboflavin+Succinic acid) as a drug with complex action in the treatment of severe neuropathies of the facial nerve is reflected.
