Abstract

Bell’s palsy is the most common disease of facial nerve and defined as an idiopathic unilateral facial nerve paralysis, usually self-limiting. However, several conditions like as brain tumor, Lyme disease and lymphoblastic leukemia also cause facial nerve paralysis. A few reports present that other disease mimicking Bell’s palsy. We report a patient who initially diagnosed Bell’s palsy, but later diagnosed acute facial palsy due to non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma originating from breast.
