It may present as an exclusive symptom, or be con-comitant with other congenital malformations nd even some fatal birth defects. Clinically, ACF is fea-tured by drooping of the intact corner of the mouth during crying, while the face appears symmetric at rest. The facial nerve function is symmetric, as determined by frowning, forehead wrinkling, eye closure, and nasolabial fold depth. When ACF alone is present, the cause is often compression of the mandibular branch of the facial nerve that is prob-ably due to birth trauma or abnormal fetal posture in utero. ACF with other congenital anomalies is usually caused by hypoplasia of the depressor anguli oris muscle (DAOM) on one side of the mouth.展开更多

Although it was necessary for nursing babies, its application was denied subjectively without clinical observation since the early 20th century. As a result solutions for breastfeeding and breast problems are confused now. Methods: We studied changes in breastfeeding and mothers’ breasts before and one month after the surgeries for ADEL by standards for healthy breastfeeding and breasts. Results: With regard to suckling, before the surgeries 24% of babies opened their eyes during breastfeeding, while after surgeries 76% opened eyes while nursing. 30% of the babies latched onto the mother’s breast with a wide-open mouth. After surgeries, 84% properly latched on. 73% of the babies had calluses on the upper lip before surgeries, and no calluses were observed after surgeries. 27% of babies before surgeries moved the jaws during breast-feeding, but after surgeries 88% moved the jaws while nursing. White debris was on the dorsum tongue in 70% of babies prior to surgeries. After surgeries, 22% were with debris. 67% of mothers experienced nipple pain before their babies’ surgeries while 6% had pain after the surgeries. Flattened nipples were observed in 55% of mothers before the infants’ surgeries, 7% after surgeries. 23% of mothers had breast pain before the surgeries, and 4% had breast pain after the surgeries. Mastitis was also reduced from 9% to 1% after surgeries. 73% of women had palpable breast masses, and after the surgeries 25% had palpable masses. Summary: Remarkable improvements in breastfeeding and in women’s breasts were achieved after their infants underwent operations for ADEL. These results indicate the necessity of surgical interventions in babies with ADEL for healthy breastfeeding and breasts (279).展开更多

Congenital absence or hypoplasia of facial muscles has not been known except for the depressor anguli oris muscle. Even, congenital unilateral hypoplasia of the orbicularis oris muscle cause of unilateral upper lip palsy has not been reported in the literature up to day. In this report, we present a patient with congenital unilateral upper lip palsy although the facial nerve was normal.展开更多
