Letter in Reply: “Neonatal Bell’s Palsy and Possible Correlation with Human Leukocyte Antigens”
Journal Title: Oman Medical Journal - Year 2019, Vol 34, Issue 1
Abstract
We reported what we believed is the youngest child to have a diagnosis of BP in the current literature. It is known that neonates with facial nerve palsy are either victims of traumatic deliveries or are due to congenital facial nerve palsy. Our patient had no evidence of any trauma before or during delivery.
