Herpes Zoster Oticus: Treatment with Acyclovir
Annals of Otology, Rhinology and Laryngology, 1992Herpes zoster oticus produces facial paralysis with a low recovery rate. Acyclovir, a specific virostatic drug, was given intravenously in five herpes zoster oticus patients, and in three of them was followed by oral therapy. In follow-ups of 1 to 24 months, one patient had grade I recovery, three patients grade II, and one grade III.

Three cases of herpes zoster oticus illustrate the manifestations of this relatively uncommon cause of facial paralysis. Topographic analysis, in which functions of facial nerve branches are assessed, helps establish the level of facial nerve involvement.

Sir. —Herpes zoster oticus (HZO) is characterized by varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection of the ear in association with facial nerve palsy. It may result in permanent facial paralysis and denervation more frequently than does idiopathic Bell's palsy.

The exhaustive research of Hunt 1 on herpes in the geniculate area and adjoining nerves needs no further elucidation on the anatomic side. He has unquestionably established that such herpes occurs in the distribution of the sensory portion of the seventh nerve, at times alone but often associated with the adjoining and closely related fifth ...

Herpes zoster oticus: Treatment with intravenous acyclovir
The Laryngoscope, 1988AbstractHerpes zoster oticus generally has a poor prognosis, leaving many patients with permanent facial nerve dysfunction. This preliminary report describes results in seven patients treated for zoster; all were given intravenous acyclovir. Patients were infused with 10 mg/kg every 8 hours over a 7‐day hospitalization period.

Bell’s palsy and herpes zoster oticus
Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2000Normal facial movement is required for chewing, swallowing, speaking, and protecting the eye. Bell's palsy causes most cases of acute, unilateral facial palsy; infection with herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 may be its major cause. Varicella zoster virus (VZV) reactivation (Ramsay Hunt syndrome) is less common, but may appear without skin lesions in a
