  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 70-year-old male showed a localized infarction image in the left precentral gyrus and a part of the superior temporal gyrus on CT. The contraction of the orbicularis oculi muscle was decreased during tight eye closure compared with the normal side. During lip protrusion, the lower lip was slightly de-viated toward the normal side. Electromyography revealed a slight decrease in spontaneous discharge in the frontal belly on the right side compared with the normal side. The most remarkable right-and-left difference was observed in the orbicularis oculi muscle with a definite decrease in the spontaneous discharge on the right side. The orbicularis oris muscle showed the least right-and-left difference.

In central facial paralysis, right-and-left differ-ences were also observed in the frontal belly and the orbicularis oculi on electromyograms. Findings on electromyograms were not always consistent with macroscopic findings. The degree of paralysis was slight in our patient.
