Effect of Distal Masseter to Facial Nerve Transfer in Paralytic Patients with Preserved Facial Nerve Continuity on Improving Scaled Measurement of Improvement in Lip Excursion (SMILE): A Vectoral Analysis

Objective: Distal masseter-to-facial neurorrhaphy is an option to improve smile excursion in facial paralysis patients in the early period without truncating the facial nerve truncus and by ensuring the continuity of the facial nerve. This study aimed to study the effect of distal masseter-to-facial...
