title: [Dynamics of the clinico-electromyographic indices of secondary contracture of the mimetic muscles in neuritis of the facial nerve (role of myogelosis)].
abstract: Clinical and electromyographic examinations of the mimic muscles were carried out in 24 patients with facial neuritis. A method of kinesthetic palpation of the mimic muscles has been developed, which has enabled one to reveal pathological infiltrations (myogeloses) in 13 patients with secondary contractures. In 6 patients the emergence and development of the myogeloses before the appearance of distinct symptoms of the facial muscle contractures were followed. In the course of these examinations clinico-electromyographic comparisons were made that gave the authors an opportunity to specify the role of the myogeloses in the formation of principal symptoms of initial manifestations of the post-neuritic contractures.
