Abstract
- Bell's palsy, also known as idiopathic facial palsy, is one of the most common causes of peripheral facial nerve palsy. Many studies of the cause and treatment of Bell's palsy have been performed, but the results are still controversial. Clinical cases of other forms of cranial nerve paralysis after influenza vaccination have also been reported. We herein report a review of literature and a case of a 95-year-old female patient who developed left facial paralysis following influenza vaccination.
