Ramsay Hunt Syndrome (RHS), also known as herpes zoster oticus, is caused by the reactivation of varicella zoster virus (VZV) in the geniculate ganglion of the facial nerve. Herein, we report a case of Ramsey Hunt Syndrome in a patient after antimonial treatment for Cutaneous Leishmaniasis. The patient presented with microvesicles grouped on an erythematous base, starting in the neck and ascending towards the scalp margin on the right side of the head. The patient also developed grade V peripheral facial palsy the day after initiating the herpes zoster treatment, this outcome corroborated the assumption of Ramsey Hunt Syndrome.
拉姆齐亨特综合征（RHS），也称为带状疱疹性耳炎，是由面神经膝状神经节内水痘带状疱疹病毒（VZV）的再激活引起的。在此，我们报告一例锑剂治疗皮肤利什曼病后发生的拉姆齐亨特综合征病例。患者表现为红斑基础上成群的微疱疹，起始于颈部，向右侧头部头皮边缘上升。患者在开始带状疱疹治疗的第二天出现了Ⅴ级周围性面瘫，这一结果证实了拉姆齐亨特综合征的假设。
