    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Otolaryngology

    Background:

    • Peripheral facial nerve (7th cranial nerve) palsies can arise from various etiologies, including trauma.
    • Bilateral involvement is uncommon, necessitating careful evaluation.

    Observation:

    • Three cases of bilateral, peripheral 7th cranial nerve palsies following trauma were identified.
    • Two patients underwent detailed audiological assessments and tomographic imaging.

    Findings:

    • All three patients demonstrated complete, spontaneous recovery of facial motor function.
    • Diagnostic imaging and audiological tests provided insights into the nerve's condition post-trauma.

    Implications:

    • This suggests a potential for favorable prognosis in certain cases of traumatic bilateral facial nerve palsy.
