Abstract
The basic techniques of nerve reconstruction surgery for facial nerve palsy are end-to-end nerve suture and end-to-side nerve suture. The latter has the epineural window method and the partial neurectomy/neurotomy method for the treatment of "side" nerves. Hypoglossal-facial nerve cross-link graft is a method of nerve reconstruction in which the hypoglossal and facial nerves are bridged by autologous nerve transposition with end-to-side nerve suture. It has been shown to be effective in treating the sequelae of established facial nerve palsy, but there are some issues that prevent the achievement of stable results.
