Facial Nerve Paralysis Following Endovascular Embolization: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

CONCLUSION: Facial palsy is a serious, though rare, complication of transarterial endovascular embolization. With our case report and literature review, we highlight not only how conservative observation is the recommended treatment, but also that facial nerve recovery should be expected to reach near complete recovery, but not sooner than in 3 months.
