The pathological findings of Ramsay Hunt Syndrome were observed in 278 patients from 1970 to 1983 in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Kitano Hospital. The serum complement fixation reaction was tested in 120 cases of fresh varicella zoster (VZ) virus infection and others. The maximum titer of VZ antibody ranged from 4 to 1024 times. The antibody titer peak was often above 128 times in patients under 29 years of age. Cases with the maximum titer above 128 times were less cases of transient paralysis whose paralysis is recovered within 30 days than other cases. The day of onset of auricular herpes has no particular relationship to the onset of facial paralysis. Air conduction hearing was frequently disturbed on the affected side in male patients in forty years of age. Vertigo was a frequent complication in patients over 60 years of age.
