BACKGROUND: Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) is a painful condition that presents after herpes zoster reactivation in the peripheral and central nervous system. When medical treatment fails, options are limited, and patients may suffer with chronic pain indefinitely. CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of a gentleman with a 3-year history of PHN in the distribution of the right lesser occipital and greater auricular nerves that failed to respond to medical treatment...

Neurosarcoidosis (NS) is a rare manifestation of sarcoidosis, a multisystem inflammatory granulomatous disease. We describe a unique case of NS with confusion and speech alteration as presenting symptoms. A 65-year-old male with a history of Ramsay Hunt syndrome and Lyme infection presented to the emergency room after an acute episode of disorientation, garbled speech, and left facial droop, along with months of worsening generalized fatigue, gait ataxia, left-sided periorbital headaches, bilateral peripheral neuropathy, and bladder disturbance...

Ramsay Hunt syndrome is a clinical manifestation of the reactivation of latent varicella zoster virus in the geniculate ganglion after acute infection. It is commonly associated with an acute peripheral facial nerve paralysis, auricular vesicular eruption and acute sensorineural hearing loss. However, in some rare cases the involvement of other cranial nerves, especially the glossopharyngeal and vagal is described. We present a 56-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with acute pharyngitis. Two days later, the patient developed dysarthria, hoarseness, and left side facial weakness...

BACKGROUND: Orthotopic heart transplant (OHT) recipients are at increased risk for varicella zoster reactivation, and severe complications may arise due to their immunosuppressive regimens. Managing immunosuppression in acute infection is difficult, and specific guideline recommendations or evidence from the literature are lacking. However, patient care must involve weighing the risk of transplant rejection with the consequences of worsening infection. CASE SUMMARY: An OHT patient with a history of multiple episodes of acute rejection, latent varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection, and recent completion of anti-viral prophylaxis presented with unilateral facial droop and pain, abducens nerve palsy, crusting facial rash, and ear swelling...

Ramsay Hunt syndrome (RHS) has a poor prognosis because of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection. This is most closely related to severe inflammation in the geniculate ganglion of the facial nerve due to VZV infection or reactivation. This study investigated whether there were differences in the prognosis and accompanying symptoms of facial paralysis based on the presence or absence of VZV IgM and IgG antibodies. This study was conducted as a retrospective chart analysis of 105 patients with RHS who were admitted to our hospital between 2015 and 2021...

Ramsay Hunt syndrome is a facial nerve palsy that arises from herpes zoster infection. In rare cases, postherpetic neuralgia is a complication following Ramsay Hunt syndrome. Pain management to address postherpetic neuralgia includes facial nerve blocks, medications such as gabapentin, carbamazepine and botulinum toxin injections, and pulsed radiofrequency. Despite the reported benefits for patients with glossopharyngeal nerve pain, neurectomy as a treatment has rarely been described. A 45-year-old patient visited our ENT clinic for chronic right-sided facial, ear, and jaw pain that persisted for 9 years following the development of Ramsay Hunt syndrome...

INTRODUCTION: Typewriter tinnitus refers to a special kind of staccato tinnitus, which is mostly described by patients as Morse code, popcorn, or machine-gun. It has been accepted that the mechanism of typewriter tinnitus is caused by the neurovascular compression of the cochleovestibular nerve. Patients who suffered from typewriter tinnitus have exhibited a good response to carbamazepine or oxcarbazepine, but there is a risk of recurrence after treatment cessation. The present study aims to determine the value of auditory brainstem response (ABR) in diagnosing typewriter tinnitus and predicting relapse after drug withdrawal...

Ramsay Hunt syndrome is due to reactivation of varicella zoster virus (VZV) dormant in the geniculate ganglion of the facial nerve. The diagnosis is typically based on clinical triad of ipsilateral facial paralysis, otalgia, and vesicles in the auditory canal or the auricle. However, Ramsay Hunt syndrome may occur without skin eruption in up to one third of patients. Moreover, the involvement of other cranial nerves in addition to the facial nerve has been also reported. Herein, we reported a case report of a man who developed a multiple cranial neuropathy caused by VZV reactivation without skin vesicular eruption...

Ramsay Hunt syndrome (RHS) with concomitant vocal cord paralysis (VCP) is a rare finding. This case is particularly rare because the patient lacked the symptoms of otalgia or hearing loss when in fact, a majority of cases typically demonstrate both hearing loss and otalgia. Unique to this case is also the fact that it was complicated by a concomitant infarction of the splenium corpus callosum and a right temporal meningioma. The purpose of this study was to bring awareness to the fact that RHS can cause multiple cranial nerve neuropathies including VCP and should be included in the differential diagnosis for VCP...

Atypical Ramsay-Hunt syndrome is caused by varicella zoster viruses (VZV), without herpes, herpes is not around the ear, or posterior cranial nerve palsy is the first clinical manifestation. In this case, a 60-year-old male patient with VZV invades the branches of the vagus nerve alone. The initial symptoms were in the pharynx and larynx, which presented as mucosal ulcers and voice disorders. The ear symptoms were only otalgia and auricular herpes, without deafness, tinnitus, or peripheral facial palsy. Herpes and ulcers healed with medication, but voice disorders caused by vocal cord paralysis did not return...

BACKGROUND: Peripheral facial paralysis (PFP) results in functional disorder and social dysfunction, when it is under a severe condition at onset, long-term poor outcomes do occur. Different acupuncture methods have been reported to be potentially effective for shortening the disease course and reducing the occurrence of sequelae when they are applied at an early stage. Neuro edema is a common pathological feature in the acute phase, and many clinical studies have suggested its effect of reducing facial nerve edema...

BACKGROUND: Ramsay-Hunt syndrome (RHS) due to varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection is commonly reported in individuals aged at least 50 years or immunocompromised individuals. VZV infection may invade the central nervous system (CNS) and cause meningitis or encephalitis, which are more likely to occur in patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes and chronic renal failure. However, cases with VZV-induced concurrent RHS and CNS infections are rare.

BACKGROUND: Genetic variants within nearly 1000 loci are known to contribute to modulation of blood lipid levels. However, the biological pathways underlying these associations are frequently unknown, limiting understanding of these findings and hindering downstream translational efforts such as drug target discovery. RESULTS: To expand our understanding of the underlying biological pathways and mechanisms controlling blood lipid levels, we leverage a large multi-ancestry meta-analysis (N = 1,654,960) of blood lipids to prioritize putative causal genes for 2286 lipid associations using six gene prediction approaches...
