Abstract |
After a brief review of the main operating techniques employed in the reconstruction of the facial nerve and Stenone's duct lacerated by trauma, a clinical case in which the two lesions are associated is reported. Suture of the lacerated nervous branches and attachment of the salivary fistula to the oral mucosa using a silicon drainage applied for a few days permitted functional recovery of neuronal activity and salivation.
