MeSH definition : Traumatic injuries to the facial nerve. This may result in FACIAL PARALYSIS, decreased
lacrimation and salivation, and loss of taste sensation in the anterior tongue. The
nerve may regenerate and reform its original pattern of innervation, or regenerate
aberrantly, resulting in inappropriate lacrimation in response to gustatory stimuli
(e.g., crocodile tears) and other syndromes.;
