Overview
Overview
At least three separate neurological syndromes carry the name of Ramsay Hunt syndrome (RHS), their only connection being that they were all first described by James Ramsay Hunt (1872-1937):
- Ramsay Hunt syndrome type I
- Ramsay Hunt syndrome type II
- Ramsay Hunt syndrome type III, a less commonly referenced condition, a neuropathy of the deep palmar branch of the ulnar nerve.
