Mild dysfunction of the facial nerve evidenced by slight facial weakness, possible mild synkinesis, normal symmetry and tone at rest, moderate to good forehead movement, complete eye closure and slight asymmetry of the mouth.	Is a	True	Facial palsy (disorder)	Inferred relationship	Some
Moderate dysfunction of the facial nerve evidenced by asymmetry of the face without disfigurement, moderate synkinesis, contracture, or hemifacial spasm, normal symmetry and tone at rest, slight to moderate movement of forehead, complete eye closure with effort and slight weakness of the mouth which persists even with maximum effort.

Deafness-ear malformation-facial palsy syndrome is characterized by profound conductive deafness due to stapedial abnormalities associated with variable malformations of the external ears and facial paralysis. It has been described in three siblings and their mother. Inheritance is autosomal dominant.	Is a	True	Facial palsy (disorder)	Inferred relationship	Some
Congenital hereditary facial paralysis-variable hearing loss syndrome is an extremely rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by bilateral facial palsy with masked facies, sensorineural hearing loss, dysmorphic features (midfacial retrusion, low-set ears), and strabismus.

A rare, localized variant of Guillain-Barré syndrome characterized by rapidly progressive bilateral facial nerve palsy, distal paresthesias, and minimal or no motor weakness. Deep tendon reflexes are usually diminished or absent but can be present or even exaggerated in rare cases. CSF analysis may reveal albuminocytologic dissociation. Nerve conduction velocity studies often show demyelinating type of neuropathy, although axonal polyneuropathy has been also described.	Is a	True	Facial palsy (disorder)	Inferred relationship	Some
