“…Data were collected in two groups of patients with unilateral facial palsy, assessed before and after masseteric to facial nerve reanimation according to Biglioli et al (2011). This is a new reanimation technique for early facial nerve repair, to be performed when the facial paralysis has not been present for more than 24 months.…”

“…All of them had signs of mimetic muscle fibrillations at preoperative electromyography and were candidate for surgical masseteric to facial nerve anastomosis. Those without signs of fibrillations were reanimated by free-flap surgery (Biglioli et al, 2009(Biglioli et al, , 2011, and excluded from the present study.…”

“…The first class includes motor nerves other than the facial; the hypoglossus and masseteric nerves are the most common. [4][5][6] "Qualitative" motor stimuli facial expression by activating mimetic muscles. Other motor nerves that are connected to the facial nerve to afford new motor input must be trained to become activated to express an emotion.…”
