Declarations
:
: Ethics approval was granted by the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center Ethics Committee (Helsinki Committee) under protocol number TLV-0147-08. The study was primarily a retrospective data analysis, for which the Ethics Committee waived the requirement for individual inform consents. However, follow-up data were frequently collected prospectively, and in these cases, informed consent was required. Overall, informed consents were obtained for five of the seven patients included in the study.
: Additionally, two patients provided separate written consent for publication of identifying photographs. One of these patients, diagnosed with CSD-associated facial nerve palsy at the age of 6, signed the publication consent form after reaching the age of 18. Copies of the signed consent forms are available for review by the Editor upon request.
