ABSTRACT
Eleven cases of permanently injured facial nerve were admitted in our department during a period of two years from January 1996 to 1998. There were nine males and two female patients. The age ranged between 22-62 years. Hypoglossal-facial anastomosis has been the procedure of choice in the repair of permanently injured facial nerve in cases such as fracture of petrous bone, after mastoidectomy and CP angle tumours. Though the series is small, but the failures are few and complications rare. Most results are good to excellent
