We present seven cases of facial paralysis in newborn and infants from a series of 88 patients (pediatrics and non pediatrics) seen in a fourteen months period (October 1987 to December 1988). Current approaches to diagnosis and treatment, including pharmacological treatment with steroids and surgical treatment are described.
