title: [Facial autonomic and trophic disorders].
abstract: The paper is concerned with the results of a clinical electrophysiological, biochemical, histochemical, X-ray and morphological study of 289 patients with different vegetovascular and trophical disturbances, mainly of a regional character, in the facial area. Some clinical aspects and questions of the pathogenesis of these disturbances are discussed which are not sufficiently reflected in the literature. It is suggested that the form of the pterygopalatine ganglion is related to the incidence of the pathological process and the traits of vegetative and pain phenomena, accompanying the Sluder syndrome. Vegetovascular changes were revealed in the skin of the face and enzymatic changes in mucous membrane of the nose on the homolateral to the paresis side of the face in lesions of the facial nerve. Specific vegetative trophical changes were also found in a progressive hemiatrophy of the face, Barrakera-Simons disease, in the syndrome of facial hemistrophy due to lesions of the different vegetative and somatic structures of the nervous system.
