| چکیده | ||
| Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is an inherited red blood cell disorder that results from the replacement of a valine residue for glutamic acid at position 6 in the beta-subunit of haemoglobin.This can lead to tissue ischemia, microcirculation obstructions, infarction, and acute stroke while Bell’s palsy is a neuropathy caused by traumatic, inflammatory, infective, or compressive conditions on the facial nerve. In patients with SCA, however, stroke may occur as an acute clinical syndrome presenting with hemiplegia with the unilateral facial nerve. Until now, no case has been reported in the literature with unilateral facial nerve palsy in SCA patients. Here, a rare case of idiopathic unilateral Bell’s palsy is presented in an SCA patient. | ||
