Abstract: Idiopathic facial nerve palsy, known also as Bell’s palsy, is a common condition encountered in everyday otolaryngological practice, and although the prognosis is fair, in case of incomplete recovery remains a marked physical disability for the patient.

Material and method: In this article the review of literature on pathogenesis and therapy of idiopathic facial nerve palsy, published in years 2006–2016 was performed, presenting the articles with direct implications for everyday clinical practice.
