    Journal: Dig Endosc; 2013 Mar; 25(2):197-9. PubMed ID: 23368515.
    Abstract:
    Herpes simplex virus (HSV)-induced sepsis affects immunocompromised patients. We report here the case of an immunocompetent adult with sepsis, hepatitis, renal failure and esophagitis. The possibility of HSV should be considered in cases of sepsis without any evident cause, even in immunocompetent patients. The characteristic endoscopic and histological findings of the associated esophagitis may assist the etiology of sepsis.
