Résumé
Even though no definitive link has been established, Bell's palsy has been described as a potential side effect of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines in a few reports, and the US Food and Drug Administration has recommended strict surveillance of its occurrence in the vaccinated general population. We present the case of a previously healthy 35-year-old female patient who developed Bell's palsy 12 h after receiving the first dose of the mRNA-1273 vaccine. Her general practitioner performed the diagnosis, and corticosteroid treatment was initiated, with slow symptoms improvement. The neurologist's evaluation and a contrast-enhanced brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging revealed a subtle enhancement of the left facial nerve, confirming the diagnosis of Bell's palsy.
