Patterns of cortical reorganization in facial synkinesis: a task functional magnetic resonance imaging study

Facial synkinesis, a sequela of peripheral facial nerve palsy, is characterized by simultaneous involuntary facial movement during a voluntary desired one. Maladaptive cortical plasticity might be involved in the dysfunction of facial muscles. This cohort study investigated the cortical functional a...
