A case of Ramsay Hunt-like syndrome caused by herpes simplex virus type 2.

George A Diaz1, Robert M Rakita, David M Koelle.   

Abstract

We report an immunocompetent patient with recurrent auricular and facial vesicles associated with painful paresthesias and facial paralysis, consistent with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, due to herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 2. Clinical and laboratory-proven acyclovir resistance developed during therapy. Immunologic assays revealed normal reactivity to HSV-2.
