Abstract
Bell's palsy is a peripheral facial palsy of sudden onset. The etiology of Bell's palsy is unknown and hereditary components may play a role in familial recurrent Bell's palsy. We report three families in which eight patients had a total of 12 episodes of typical Bell's palsy. The pathophysiology of familial recurrent Bell's palsy is discussed.
