Abstract
- A 43 year old man who suffered from right facial palsy was treated successfully with the application of both magnetic resonance diagnostic analyser (MRA) and drug therapy. Treatment of facial palsy is generally composed of stellate ganglion block (SGB), drug therapy and operative intervention. Short periods of exposure to appropriate magnetic resonance can beneficially modulate the balance of autonomic nervous system that are responsible for sympathetic overflow. It was concluded that recovery of facial palsy by application of both MRA and drug therapy was effective in patient who refused SGB.
