Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for post-partum bell's palsy associate with anti-phospholipid syndrome: a case report, literature review, and mechanistic insights

HBOT may represent a valuable adjunctive treatment for postpartum Bell's palsy in high-risk populations such as those with APS, offering combined benefits of enhanced oxygenation, inflammation control, and vascular repair. Further prospective studies are warranted to validate these findings and define standardized treatment protocols.
