Herpes is derived from the Greek meaning, “to creep”
and zoster “sword belt or girdle.” Ramsay Hunt(1907)
was first to describe this as herpetic eruption
associated with viral prodrome, severe otalgia, facial
nerve dysfunction, vesicular eruption involving the
pinna, and occasionally vestibulocochlear symptoms.
Hunt classified herpes zoster at the cephalic
extremity according to the sensory ganglion involved
and the site of the rash into the following groups:
(1) Geniculate herpes zoster (herpes oticus), (2)
Gasserian herpes zoster (herpes facialis), and (3)
Cervical herpes zoster (herpes occipito-collaris)
