Deciphering unilateral congenital facial palsy in neonates: A case series and literature review
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Unilateral facial palsy in neonatal period either occurs in isolation or in association of a syndrome. We report three neonates, two boys and one girl, who presented with unilateral facial palsy at birth. Clinical assessment was performed by a neonatologist, ear-nose-throat (ENT) surgeon, an ophthalmologist and a physiotherapist. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain in two neonates and additional computerized tomography (CT) of the temporal bone in one patient was done to exclude developmental anomalies of the facial nerve. Imaging revealed an underlying underdevelopment etiology with absence of cochlea in one neonate. These findings point towards the importance of imaging and systematic diagnostic work-up. This article describes a multidisciplinary approach toward unilateral, isolated congenital facial palsy along with a literature review. Role of physiotherapy, auditory rehabilitation, and other medical and surgical options have also been discussed.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
