Polymerase Chain Reaction Amplification of Herpes Simplex Viral Dna from the Geniculate Ganglion of a Patient with Bell's Palsy

1 Oct 1994

Abstract excerpt

Bell's palsy is the most common cause of facial paralysis. In this study, we demonstrate the presence of herpes simplex viral type 1 (HSV-1) genomic DNA in the geniculate ganglion of a patient who had Bell's palsy. This association suggests that in this patient, HSV-1 may have caused Bell's palsy. If HSV-1 is a cause of Bell's palsy, treatment with acyclovir may be beneficial. Additional studies should be done to...
