title: [Indications for labial reanimation in facial paralysis].
abstract: The therapeutic approach of labial reanimation depends on several points, like the association with others abnormalities, the palsy which can be complete or partial, the age of the patient and the practice of the surgical team. Nevertheless, the authors try to propose a surgical approach of labial reanimation in facial palsy, depending on the facial nerve which can be reparable or not, and on the facial muscles which can be used or not. At least, the indications in partial labial palsy are recalled.
