Özet

In this case we presented isolated unilateral hypoglossal nerve palsy after an uneventful rhinoplasty operation. After rhinoplasty numbness of tongue, difficulty in speaking, chewing and swallowing occurred in the first day of surgery. Left side deviation of the tongue was present when the patient put her tongue out. Neurological assessments were compatible with hypoglossal nerve palsy. There was no other pathology detected in differential diagnosis. We followed the patient with oral vitamin B complex and steroids. Complete recovery was obtained ten months after surgery.
