AbstractRecurrent lower motor neurone facial paralysis in successive pregnancies is a rare phenomenon of which there are few case reports in the literature. There have been two previous reports of recurrent Bell's palsy in two and three successive pregnancies respectively, but it is felt that these should have more appropriately been reported as recurrent lower motor neurone facial paralysis in pregnancy as, by definition, any facial paralysis that recurs should not be classified as Bell's palsy even though Bell himself commented on the association between facial paralysis and pregnancy. We report the first case of recurrent lower motor neurone facial paralysis in four successive pregnancies and review the literature.

Objective. This report is the first one to describe the possibility to use “self‐administered” photobiomodulation (PBM) for Bell’s palsy (BP) treatment. Background. BP is a peripheral disorder of the facial nerve causing sudden paralysis of unilateral facial muscles, and PBM has been successfully suggested for its treatment without any side effect. This is the first case report where a laser device was successfully used at home by the patient herself to treat BP opening new perspectives on the therapy of this disease. Methods. This report describes the “at-home PBM” treatment performed on a 15-year-old girl who presented BP consisting of acute pain on the right side of her face, difficulty in biting and dripping saliva from the right side of her lips. The treatment was performed twice a day by cutaneous applications, each of 15 minutes (total fluence 48 J/cm2) in an area corresponding to the parotid gland by a device emitting at 808 nm at 250 mW output power. Results. Two weeks after PBM treatment, performed at home twice a day by the patient herself without any kind of pharmacological therapy, the complete disappearing of the disease was noticed with no side effects. Conclusion. With the limitations due to a single case report and with the need of further clinical trials to confirm it, “at-home PBM” seems to represent a good and safe approach to the treatment of BP.

Proteus syndrome is a rare, multi-system, genetic syndrome characterised by atypical and excessive growth of skeletal tissue. Clinical presentations include abnormal musculoskeletal growth and cutaneous lesions. Due to its rarity, there have been a limited number of published case reports of Proteus syndrome. This is the first case report on the management of Proteus syndrome in pregnancy. We present the case of a pregnant woman with Proteus syndrome in her first pregnancy in a large teaching hospital and discuss the considerations and challenges faced in her antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal care.

Bell’s palsy, also known as acute idiopathic lower motor neuron facial paralysis, is characterized by sud-den onset paralysis or weakness of the muscles to one side of the face controlled by the facial nerve. In contemporary science, administration of steroids is the treatment of choice for complete facial palsy. Cer-tain Panchakarma procedures and internal Ayurvedic medicines have been proved to be beneficial in the management of Ardita vata. The present report deals with a case of 62-year-old male patient diagnosed as Ardita vata was treated with various Panchakarma procedures like Nasya, Shirobasti, Kukkutanda Swedana, Dashmoola Ksheer Dhoom, Gandoosh and oral Ayurveda medicines. Criteria of assessment was based on the scoring of House-Brackmann Facial Nerve Grading scale. After completion of Ayurveda treatment, the patient Shown almost complete recovery without any adverse effects. This case is an evi-dence to demonstrate the effectiveness of Ayurveda treatment in case of Ardita vata (Bell’s palsy).
