|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 제7뇌신경인 얼굴신경의 지배근육에 국한된 한쪽성의 불수의 수축이며, 눈꺼풀로부터 점차 눈확 하부, 볼부분 입 모서리부분으로 퍼진다. 경련은 간대성으로 발작성 발현을 하며 피로나 정신적 긴장에 따라 증강된다. 50대 이후에 여성에게 많다. 중증인 경우에는 눈을 뜨기가 곤란하다. 원인은 명백하지 않은 것이 많지만 말초성 얼굴신경 손상의 치유 후, 또는 얼굴신경 기시부의 혈관(앞소뇌동맥, 뒤밑소뇌동맥, 척추동맥 등)에 의한 압박 등이 있다. |

Bell's (facial nerve palsy) can be differentiated from a central (stroke) deficit by the inability to raise the eyebrow on the affected side. (27 Sep 1997) |
| root of facial nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Fibres running from the facial motor nucleus upward to the facial colliculus where they curve around the abducens nucleus and then pass peripherally between the superior olive and sensory nucleus of the trigeminal, to emerge as the facial nerve from the pontomedullary groove. Synonym: radix nervi facialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
