Abstract
This letter discusses a case report on idiopathic non-traumatic Bell’s palsy in a two-week-old neonate, highlighting the potential correlation with human leukocyte antigens (HLA). The author suggests that certain HLA types may increase susceptibility to Bell’s palsy and calls for further studies to explore this association.
